There are few jobs as heartwarming as this. ☺️

If you’re looking for a role where you can genuinely make a difference, becoming a part-time Care Professional with Home Instead could be the job that was made for you.

Every visit with a local client lasts at least an hour, giving you proper time to get to know each person like a friend and provide the care they need to live independently in their own home - whether that’s helping someone get up and ready for the day, preparing a warm meal, popping to the shops, or heading out for a walk with their dog.

By the end of the day, you’ll go home knowing you’re the person someone truly looks forward to seeing.

Apply online or call our friendly recruiter to find the right role for you.

Our Care Managers Karen and Helen recently attended PAC training- Positive Approach to Care. This was led by an Advanced Clinical Practitioner and OT at Bishop Auckland Hospital and is founded by dementia care expert Teepa Snow.

This training includes techniques based on understanding areas of the brain that are no longer working and making use of the parts of the brain that are still active to enable us to protect and grow our client relationships and improve the experience of care for those living with dementia.

Our Care Manager Helen said "Here at Home Instead Durham we are always striving to improve our care and support and finding positive ways to support our clients in challenging situations, is an important part of this".
