Job Description
Would you like to join our bank of Live-in Care Professionals?
We have Clients in the Sheffield & Barnsley area who require Live-in Care. If you would like to register for further information and be notified of Live-in Care opportunities, please click apply, complete your details, and we will contact you to discuss the process and any opportunities you may be suitable for.
We pay a competitive rate of £822.50 per week plus £60 a week for sundry expenses.
Clients will provide Care Professionals with their food for the week – 3 meals a day plus snacks. If they do not provide suitable food (personal preferences or allergies and intolerances) or enough, then Care Professionals will use their sundry expenses for this.
Travel is not formally covered by Home Instead – it is the Care Professional’s responsibility to get themselves to the Client and home. If the Care Professional does not drive, we will pick them up from the train station for their first visit to ensure a smooth start.
Joining our Bank of Care Professionals is free of charge. It requires only some time to speak with us and complete a few forms.
Home Instead Live-in Care involves selecting Care Professionals to be companions and support clients in their own homes with daily activities. The number of hours of care each day is decided by the Client. Live-in Care Professionals provide companionship, comfort, and support day and night, helping clients live independently with confidence.
No prior experience or specific qualifications are required to become a Live-in Care Professional. Experience caring for family or volunteering is valuable. You should be passionate about supporting others, reliable, trustworthy, respectful, and able to build professional friendships while spending time with others.

* Conscientiousness in following procedures.
