Care Assistant in Folkestone

Folkestone Full-Time On-site
I

Inchwater Home Care is a family run independent provider of private care. With an expanding client need for our bespoke care packages, we are looking for a certain kind of person to join our well-established team of Caregivers in Folkestone and Hythe.

Everyone has care experience, from changing a nappy or helping ageing parents, to buying the shopping for your neighbour who is struggling to go out.

We don't need you to have previous professional care experience as we offer comprehensive training built from our own mix of experience in the Health and Social Care sector.

If you are interested in joining Inchwater - then we offer you the real opportunity to slow down, continuity of care with your own specific clients, and travelling and wait time as well as a very competitive mileage allowance. All this is to enable the best possible care for our clients.

What we can offer you?

  • Paid Travel and wait time
  • 45p per mile fuel allowance
  • Double-time rates on Bank holidays
  • Your own clients to work with, so you can build a relationship
  • Minimum of 1hr visits, so no rushing around

Plus, of course

  • Full training induction and ongoing training and support
  • Refer a friend bonus
  • Fully funded nationally recognised training (NVQs 2, 3, 4 and 5)

We only ask a couple of things:

  • You need your own transport.
  • You want to work in a team that focusses on wellbeing.

We are currently looking for part time staff to work across Hythe, Folkestone and surrounding areas for our inspiring clients. Should you be successful, you will be matched to clients that click with you and your availability.

You'll be visiting our clients in their homes and offering companionship, personal care and anything else they need to live a happy and independent life. Daily activities might include personal care, medication, domestic tasks, shopping, offering choices, social inclusion and social support.

More often than not, we are approached by family members in need of some extra help with their relative, so we are looking for you to care for our clients as you would care for your own family or friends.

No previous experience is required as full training is provided, all we ask is that you have a passion to care for others!

We Support all our Care Assistants

Our role is to support you, so that you can work comfortably knowing you have all the training, knowledge and backup you need. You can call us 24hrs a day!

We pay you mileage from home, pay you during the visit and also pay you mileage and time to get to your next client.
