Work as a self-employed private carer in Whitchurch, delivering daytime hourly care in people’s own homes.

Right now, 5 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Typical visits are daytime hourly calls where you support people with washing, dressing, continence care, meal preparation, prompting medication and light companionship. Tasks vary by client; you choose assignments that match your skills and comfort. If you enjoy practical care and building trusting relationships in the community around Whitchurch and wider Shropshire, this role will suit you.
