Care Assistant – Wokingham
Location: Wokingham
Salary: £13.10 - £18.00
Hours: Part time or Full Time
Our Care Assistants 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 to helping the more vulnerable in our society, offering a sense of satisfaction that is difficult to match.
Responsibilities
Working for Caremark Wokingham and Bracknell, you would be responsible for meeting the support requirements of our customers, in a way that respects the individual and promotes their independence. You would be expected to travel to the customer’s home and assist them with daily tasks as agreed between the customer and Caremark.
The type of support that you would be providing is no different to that which a family member would give. For instance, you may be providing help with bathing and dressing or domestic support.
Your role would include helping customers with tasks such as:
* Shopping & meal preparation
* Prompting with medication
* Support with daily routines
* Respite services
* Socialising and leisure activities
* Helping customers access the community

Qualifications and Experience
We are happy to speak to anybody looking to either get into care for the first time or who have been in the industry for years. Full training is provided for anyone joining Caremark and for those looking to further themselves, we offer extra opportunities with training specialists.
One of our care workers had this to say about Caremark’s extra training programme:
"I joined Caremark with no experience in care. The training I received gave me the confidence I needed to do a great job for their customers. I want to be a paramedic so these experiences were invaluable and look great on my CV. They enrolled me on my level 3 in Health and Social Care and I have recently completed it. It’s nice that a company really takes an interest in its employees."
