Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in North End

Live-in care in North End means you’ll move into a client’s home and support their daily routine around the clock, with agreed breaks and rest periods. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, staying with people who need consistent companionship, personal care and help with household routines in a familiar environment in North End and across Essex. Right now, 115 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

What the role involves

• Supporting personal care and mobility, meal preparation and medication prompts.
• Being a steady presence for companionship, daily planning and light household tasks.
• Working alongside families and other professionals to keep the person at home as safely as possible.

Who this suits

• Experienced carers who want to move away from agency rota culture and want more control over who they work with.
• Carers comfortable living in someone else’s home, flexible on travel and able to commit to agreed live-in patterns and breaks.
• People who value long-term relationships with clients and practical continuity of care in North End and nearby areas such as Great Dunmow, Braintree, Springfield, Chelmsford, Thaxted and Witham.
