Care Assistant - Domiciliary

Make a Difference with an Outstanding Care Provider

Home Instead Ivybridge is a CQC-rated Outstanding home care company dedicated to helping older adults remain independent in the comfort of their own homes. As a family-run, locally owned business and part of the trusted Home Instead network, we are passionate about delivering exceptional, person-centred care across the South Hams.

We're looking for caring, reliable, and compassionate people to join our growing team. In return, you'll become part of an award-winning organisation that values its people, offers excellent training and support, and provides truly rewarding work every day.

Because our clients live across local towns and rural communities, this role involves regular travel and occasional transportation of clients to appointments, social activities, and outings. A full UK driving licence and access to a reliable vehicle insured for business use are therefore essential.

We're looking for compassionate and reliable Care Professionals to join our fantastic team. With minimum one-hour visits, you'll have the time to build meaningful relationships, provide personalised support, and make a genuine impact on the lives of older people in your local community.

What could a typical day look like?

• Supporting with personal care and helping clients start or end their day with dignity and confidence
• Preparing meals and refreshments creating nutritious meals to individual preferences
• Helping around the home with light housekeeping, laundry, keeping living spaces tidy and comfortable
• Accompanying clients to appointments, shopping trips, or community activities
• Encouraging hobbies and independence, from gardening and crafts to going out for coffee
• Providing companionship and conversation, because sometimes a friendly face and listening ear mean everything
