Would you rather have enough time to care properly instead of rushing from visit to visit?
At GoodOaks Homecare Dorchester and Weymouth, we believe great care starts with looking after our team.
We're an award-winning home care provider that gives our Care Professionals the time, support and respect they deserve. We carefully match carers with clients, provide longer visits wherever possible, and create consistent local rounds so you can build genuine relationships with the people you support.
Whether you're an experienced Care Assistant or looking to start a rewarding career in care, we'd love to hear from you.
What you'll be doing

- Companionship and meaningful conversation
- Shopping and light household duties
- Personal care
- Medication administration
- Meal preparation
- Support with appointments and outings
- Promoting independence, dignity and wellbeing
You'll become a familiar face to your regular clients and make a genuine difference to their lives every single day.
