What the role involves

  • Supporting daily routines: prompting, gentle encouragement, personal care and companionship while respecting the person’s pace and preferences.
  • Creating calm, familiar environments: using consistent routines and simple activities to reduce anxiety and support memory.
  • Working closely with families: sharing observations, following care plans and adapting approaches as needs change.

Who this suits
