Company Description

At Home Instead, we’re more than a care provider – we’re a family of compassionate, empathetic people who believe in helping our community remain safe, happy, and independent in the comfort of their own homes.

We provide community-based care, supporting clients across Craven Arms and the surrounding areas. Every visit is an opportunity to bring comfort, connection, and dignity to someone who needs it most.

If you’re someone who naturally cares, listens, and wants to make a meaningful impact, this could be the perfect role for you.

Job Description

Your Role as a Community Care Professional

As a Home Instead Care Professional, you’ll be supporting clients in their own homes, offering personalised care that helps them live independently and confidently.

Your work will include:

🌟 Providing genuine companionship

Sharing stories, enjoying a cuppa, offering a listening ear, all whilst brightening someone’s day.

🌟 Supporting with daily routines

Helping clients with tasks such as light housekeeping, meal preparation, getting ready for the day, or winding down for the evening.

🌟 Delivering personal care with empathy and dignity

You’ll help clients feel safe, comfortable, and respected — always taking the time they deserve.

What makes us different?

At Home Instead, we believe great care starts with time, trust, and consistency.

  • Minimum 1-Hour Visits
    We don’t rush care. Our minimum 1-hour visits mean you have the time to build relationships, deliver unhurried care, and make a real difference to each client’s day.

  • Introductions Before Care Begins
    You’ll always be introduced to clients before regular care starts. This helps everyone feel comfortable, confident, and supported from the very first visit.

  • Consistency & Regular Clients
    We match Care Professionals with regular clients wherever possible, so you can build meaningful relationships and enjoy continuity in your work.

Because when care is personal, everyone benefits — our clients and our Care Professionals alike.
