We ensure that our visits to clients give time to fully support them without any rushing or pressure to be elsewhere.

Applicants do not have to have previous experience as full training will be given with support to achieve the care certificate and diploma in Health and Social Care.

Staff do need to be able to drive and have access to a vehicle and staff are expected to work every other weekend and some evenings, however, we can be flexible and look at evening staff or weekend staff.
