About this role
Company Description
At Home Instead Norwich, care is about much more than completing a list of tasks. It’s about building relationships, providing companionship and helping people continue living independently in their own homes.

You do not need previous care experience. If you have the right values and a genuine desire to help others, we can provide the training and support you need.

Your role could include helping with personal care and daily routines, preparing meals, supporting with medication and helping clients safely get around their home.
Just as importantly, you'll provide companionship. That could mean enjoying a cup of tea and a chat, going out into the community, attending appointments, or simply being there when someone needs company.
You'll also keep accurate care records and let us know if you notice any changes in a client's physical or emotional wellbeing.
