Live in care jobs with Bunbury Care Agency
Bunbury Care Agency has a variety of live in care jobs available. We are an independent and private family-run home care agency based in Cheshire and have been helping families for almost 50 years. Our longevity and success is largely attributed to our invaluable team of carers who look after our clients with the dignity, respect and understanding that they deserve.
Our Philosophy
We passionately believe the elderly and vulnerable should have the choice of how they are looked after. Our experience tells us that almost everyone, with the right care and support, can remain living in their own homes.
We believe that our clients benefit from a variety of regular live in carers and want more than ‘pop in – pop out’ daily home visits.
The role of a live-in carer
Privacy, Dignity and Respect
Our live-in carers work usually look after 2-3 clients on a rota basis. Each client will have 3 -4 carers which means you can schedule your availability around your daily life i.e. have time for your family, appointments and holidays. This also benefits our clients as they see a variety of friendly faces.
Most live-in bookings are usually 1 week but some clients like to have the same person for a fortnight. We feel that this is the longest a booking should be so that you do not become overworked and tired. Your wage will always reflect the level of care required and additional support is provided to ensure your have regular breaks. All travel costs are paid at 45p per mile.
Your care duties will usually include the following:
- Dressing and undressing
- Bathing, washing, shaving and oral hygiene
- Toilet and continence requirements
- Medication requirements and other health related issues
- Manual handling
- Hygiene and awareness of infection control
- Eating and meal times
- Handling personal possessions and documents
- Entering the home, room, bathroom or toilet
