Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Lydney

Live‑in care in Lydney is about more than shifts: it’s living alongside someone who needs steady companionship and support with daily routines. As a live‑in carer you sleep at the client’s home, provide personal and practical help through the day and night, and take agreed breaks. Carers travel from across the country for live‑in placements in Lydney and the surrounding area. Right now, 118 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

PrimeCarers finds introductions, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working on placement.
