Job Summary
Live-in Carer to support a smart, independent woman who lives with a high-level spinal injury. She’s got a great sense of what works for her, and this is your chance to be part of a well-run, respectful care package where your input truly matters.
At Nurslink Homecare, we’re all about helping people stay independent and feel good in their own homes—and we want our carers to feel just as supported. Whether you’re looking to build on your experience, pick up some new skills, or settle into a long-term role where you’re genuinely appreciated, we’d love to hear from you.
You’ll need a full driving license and have access to your own vehicle for this Live-in Carer role, as our clients live in the community.
