Looking for a Care Role Where You Feel Part of a Team?
Louisa Homecare Ltd is recruiting Community Support Workers / Care Assistants to join our growing domiciliary care team.
Whether you're an experienced Care Assistant, Support Worker, Home Carer or Healthcare Assistant, or you're looking for an opportunity to start a rewarding career in care, we'd love to hear from you.
You'll be supporting people within their own homes, helping them remain safe, independent and comfortable while delivering the high standard of person-centred care we expect at Louisa Homecare Ltd.
What You'll Be Doing
Every client is different, which means no two working days are exactly the same.
Your responsibilities may include:
- Providing personal care while maintaining dignity and independence
- Supporting clients with medication
- Preparing meals and drinks
- Supporting with mobility and daily living activities
- Providing companionship and emotional support
- Helping clients maintain their independence at home
- Observing and reporting changes in a client's wellbeing
- Following individual care plans and risk assessments
- Communicating with the office team, families and other professionals
- Maintaining accurate care records
Full-Time and Part-Time Opportunities
We understand that different people need different working patterns, which is why we have both full-time and part-time care positions available.
Domiciliary care involves supporting clients at the times they need us most, so applicants should be prepared to work a mixture of agreed shifts, which may include mornings, evenings and weekends.
Your availability and preferred working pattern will be discussed as part of the recruitment process.

- Respectful of people's choices, dignity and independence
- Confident working independently in the community
- Good communicators
- Able to remain calm and professional
- Willing to learn and develop
