Applicants must already hold a valid Right to Work in the UK at the time of application.
Join Consultus Care & Nursing and provide exceptional, person-centred care to clients in their own homes. With over 60 years of experience and a CQC 'Good' rating, we're a family-led company dedicated to supporting both our clients and our carers.
As one of the UK's longest-established live-in care providers, we are proud of our reputation for delivering high-quality live-in care that enables clients to remain safely and comfortably at home.
We are currently recruiting live-in carers for ongoing placements supporting multiple clients across the region.
This is a live-in role requiring carers to stay in a client's home for placements typically lasting 2-4 weeks at a time before taking a break. Applicants must be comfortable with the live-in nature of this role.
