Live-in Care Assistant

The Role: To provide practical assistance and emotional support to a client living with dementia. The client is physically able to do many tasks for herself, but requires prompting to do so. With encouragement the client enjoys going out for walks, visiting the local café, baking and helping out with household chores. She also enjoys having a pamper session with and having her nails and hair done.

Home Instead is the world's leading provider of non-medical care and companionship services for older people. At Home Instead we believe people should have the choice to stay at home for as long as possible.
