Arriving at your first client of the day will give you a great sense of satisfaction knowing your going to make a difference to that persons day. 

Assisting clients to feel motivated throughout the day. This could be supporting with a shower or picking out there favourite clothing or supporting with toilet breaks. 

How about helping preparing a favourite meal, if you can poach an egg you are on to a winner, if not don't worry we can teach you!  

To help our clients feel healthy we support with medication, ensuing they feel confident and comfortable to remain where they want to be, at home. 

Are you a dab hand with a duster or dance a hoover around the room? As a standard at Home Instead we ensure we keep their homes how they like it and this means some support with light household tasks.  

All of our clients are individual and unique. You will need to be able to adapt yourself to different situations to improve the clients wellbeing, being a companion to our clients does just this. Companionship means chatting over a cuppa, or heading out on a shopping trip to the garden centre, simply just spending time together.
