What will you be doing?

You will be the highlight of someone’s day. As a Care Assistant, you’ll be visiting vulnerable adults in the Sunderland community in their own homes, helping them to maintain their independence and dignity. No two days are exactly the same, but your day might include:

• Helping someone get ready for the day with a bright 'good morning' (assisting with washing and dressing).
• Preparing a hearty breakfast or lunch.
• Prompting medication.
• Most importantly, providing a listening ear, a friendly chat, and a bit of much-needed companionship.

Do I need experience?

Not necessarily! Whether you’ve cared for a family member, raised a family of your own, or are just looking for a meaningful career change where your natural compassion can shine, we provide full, paid training to give you all the confidence you need.
