We're always looking for great people who are passionate about caring for others in order to make a positive difference to their lives.
With care homes, domiciliary care and live-in care, there really is a role for everyone!
In every Agincare care home we strive to provide a warm, friendly and stimulating environment for all; communities that offer activity, independence and, most importantly, the choice to live their lives the way they want to. Central to everything we do is to treat people as individuals, which we call person-centred care.
The role of a care assistant is to provide practical support and care to residents including personal, social and therapeutic care whilst adhering to their person-centred care plan and working within the confines of the residential home’s policies and procedures. Also, to participate in plans to promote an environment contributing to a high standard of care according to the residents’ needs and wishes.
While each of our residential homes has its own style and facilities, each one offers its residents comfort, security and the support they need.
Live-in care is for elderly people and younger adults who wish to still enjoy an independent life in the safety and comfort of their own home.
Live-in care assistants give the client control over their care, helping to enable day-to-day living from simple chores, moving around, shopping and providing meals to companionship and other domestic tasks. Live-in care assistants can also offer 1-2-1 care and support for more complex health issues such as:
Home care is the first step on the care ladder for people who need some assistance to manage their day and still retain their independence. It can be as simple as helping someone get up and about in the morning, or to help them take their medication regularly, feed their pets or keep them mobile around their home.
Sometimes home care is high-dependency and 24-hour home care is needed. We are guided by what our customers need, and matching care and care-worker is of paramount importance.
Clients often need social support, more than personal care. Home visits can simply be about taking time to chat, popping to the shops or having a cup of tea together.
Ultimately our care assistants need to act with care, kindness and dignity, building relationships with their customers and helping them enjoy their lives.
Becoming a home care assistant is a great contribution to your community, looking after the needs of people who most likely have lived in your area for a long time.
