Home Instead is the world’s leading provider of non-medical care and companionship services for adults. With minimum visits of one hour, award winning training and an excellent reputation we are immensely proud of the quality of care we provide. 

CAREGiver – Barnsley

Are you kind and compassionate and looking for a rewarding new role in care? Maybe you are an early bird who’s up with the lark? Or a night owl who needs some late-night company? We’ve got calls to suit everyone! Perhaps you have some time to spare each weekend and are keen to increase your income? Or maybe you’re a student who is looking for evening and weekend work?

Here at Home Instead we are looking for CAREGivers for a variety of client visits. At Home Instead… we are different to other care companies!

At Home Instead we provide unrushed care. You’ll be matched to your clients, where you’ll spend a minimum of an hour with them in their homes, helping them to live independently for as long as possible.

We encourage our clients to “Dare to Dream” … so whether it’s a trip to the theatre or a coffee at the local garden centre, you’ll help to make your clients' wishes come true! You’ll support your client with personal care, light house keeping and companionship.

Previous experience interacting with older people would be preferred but isn’t essential. Full training will be given. We are looking for kind, caring people who pass our 'Mum test' and we would be happy to provide care for our own loved ones. So, while you don’t need to have previous experience working in care, you will need to be passionate about supporting other people, whilst being reliable, trustworthy, and respectful. As a CAREGiver, you’ll love spending time in the company of others and thrive on having a purpose.

-          Great communication skills

-          Resilience – not every day will be easy, but you’ll make a difference with every client you meet
