Home Instead is an American owned company, with offices throughout the USA, Europe and with 255 offices across the UK. We are recognised by The Financial Times as being one of the top 3 employers in the UK, this is because we respect our staff and work with them to ensure all parties are happy and contented.
We provide Care Professionals on a one-to-one basis to clients in their own homes for a minimum of 1-hour assignments. We provide 'proper care', no short visits, ever.
Being a franchise we work within a given area covering Hatfield, Welwyn Garden, Borehamwood and Potters Bar and the villages in between. This means all staff should have a UK driving licence and a vehicle that they can use for work as clients have home visits.
We do not have set shifts we will work with our care pro's availability and there is lot's of flexibility as we cover hours between 6.00am and 10pm. We are happy to speak to people who can cover 12 hours per week. We do require all staff work their agreed hours on alternate weekends, both Saturday and Sunday. We are also happy to speak to people who are looking for considerably more hours, as I said, we are happy to discuss your personal availability and see if we can make it work for us both.
