Our Home Care Workers have the chance to make a real difference to people’s lives, both at home and supporting them in the community.

This is a role that varies from day-to-day helping the more vulnerable in our society, offering a sense of satisfaction that is difficult to match.

• Dale Care Workers are responsible for meeting the support requirements of our Service users, in a way that respects the individual and promotes their independence.
• Our carers travel to the Service users own home and assist them with daily tasks as agreed between the Service user and Dale Care Gateshead.
• The type of support that you can expect to be providing is no different from what would reasonably be given by a member of the person’s family. For instance, you may be providing personal care and support or domestic support
