Would you like the opportunity to enhance the life of a vulnerable adult?

Exciting opportunities have become available for experienced Carers within our Enablement Service in the North Herts area, which covers Royston, Letchworth, Baldock, Hitchin, Stevenage, Knebworth and the surrounding areas.

The service we offer enables people to be safely discharged from hospital, allowing them to return to independence. Your caring and enthusiastic attributes will be welcomed into our friendly team to provide high standards of care to individuals to enable them to remain independent in their own home.

Please note that all applicants must be able to work at least two evenings per week and 2 weekends per month to perform this role successfully.

Who are we?

We are Herts at Home, a lead care provider working with Hertfordshire County Council and we provide care for people living in their own homes in the community.

Here’s why you should work with us:

• We pay you £13.83 per hour (£14.83 for Bank Holidays).
• 40 contracted hours per week
• We pay for your DBS check.
• We are committed to provide our staff with comprehensive paid training, regular ongoing support throughout your career, and promote professional career development.
• We are part of the Herts Rewards programme, offering you great shopping discounts and local offers (e.g. Asda, Sainsburys, New Look, cinema tickets, leisure centres and much more!).
• You will work with a friendly, supportive team who share a passion for providing a high standard of person-centred care.

A little about the role and responsibilities:

• Providing support to older people as outlined in their care plans to include personal care and adhering to risk assessments.
• Carrying out moving and assisting techniques specific to the clients’ needs.
• Supporting people to express their choices, promoting their individuality and independence about their care decisions.
• Providing emotional support.
• Medication administration.

About you:

• Caring, responsible, empathetic, understanding and proactive, with a great sense of humour.
• A passion for delivering high quality care to vulnerable adults with a variety of needs.
• Able to work flexibly, independently and as part of a team to meet the needs of the people we support.
• Comfortable in assisting individuals with their personal care where this is required.
• You must be a driver and have access to a vehicle for the duration of your shift.
