Description
Work with people living with dementia in their own homes across Worksop, supporting daily routines, familiar surroundings and calm, patient companionship. These roles suit carers who prioritise consistency, gentle pacing and practical support that keeps people safe and comfortable at home.
Right now, 12 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
What the work involves
You’ll provide hands-on care and emotional support tailored to each person’s needs: prompting routines, supporting personal care, helping with meals and medication prompts, and using familiar activities to reduce distress. Much of the work focuses on patience, repetition and creating reassuring, predictable days.
Who this suits
This is for experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency work. If you have at least a year of professional care experience, a steady, calm approach and a commitment to person-centred practice in Nottinghamshire, these roles may be a good fit. You’ll be working with people who benefit from continuity, so reliability and a genuine interest in dementia care matter more than formal qualifications alone.
