Right now, 63 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This work suits experienced, confident carers who want more control than agency shifts usually offer. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and find the extended, deeper relationships very rewarding.

We also connect roles across Manchester when a client’s needs or location make sense.
