What you’ll be doing as a live-in carer:
As a live-in care assistant in Scotland, you’ll follow a personalised care plan that enables clients to stay in their own homes. You’ll typically work an average of 6 –10 hours per day, with daily rates based on hours worked and your experience. You’ll stay with your client during your chosen rota pattern, caring for one person (or sometimes a couple); supporting with daily activities, personal care, condition management, and household tasks.

Together, we’re improving the lives of those in your local area, one meaningful step at a time, by delivering outstanding care in Scotland.
