Job description

Are you looking for a part time role, within school hours (mornings/early afternoons)?

Would you love a rewarding role supporting a gentleman in his own home / taking out in the community ?

Come and join one of the UK's largest provider of complex care.

We are currently recruiting dedicated and compassionate Support Workers to join our client in Andover. This is a fantastic opportunity to become part of a small, consistent team delivering truly person-centred care to a gentleman with complex needs in his own home.

About the Role:

You will be supporting a 71-year-old gentleman living with Locked-In Syndrome following a brain stem stroke. He has complete paralysis and communicates using eye movements. Despite his condition, he enjoys getting out and about in the community and living life to the fullest.

He lives in a comfortable two-bedroom bungalow alongside a live-in support worker provided by Active Care in the Home.

Full training will be provided in all aspects of his clinical care, including:

  • Suction
  • PEG feeding
  • Catheter care
  • Nebulisers

Available Shifts

Morning Shifts (9:00am 10:30am)
Working alongside the live-in carer to assist with:

  • Personal care
  • Hoisting
  • Supporting the client to get ready for the day

Afternoon Shifts (12:00pm 3:00pm)
This shift allows the live-in carer to take a break, so you will be lone working. The client enjoys going out whatever the weather! Duties include:

  • Driving the client in his own adapted vehicle
  • Supporting trips into the community (shopping, parks, appointments, and daily tasks)

Please note: A full UK driving licence is essential for afternoon shifts, and you must be comfortable driving an assisted/adapted vehicle.

What to look forward to:

  • £12.50 per hour
  • Full specialist training, shadow shifts, and ongoing support from the Care Manager provided
  • Accrued holiday pay
  • Regular consistent work with rolling rotas
  • Flexible zero hours contract
  • Join the Active Learning Hub and benefit from a wide range of e learning and face to face training and development opportunities
  • A Nest Personal Pension account
  • We recognise outstanding Active Behaviours via the Active Awards programme
  • Refer a Friend Scheme and earn yourself up to £1,500 by recommending someone you know
  • and, of course, the support and guidance of our qualified clinical and business leadership teams so that you can really develop your career with Active Care Group


Active Care Group is an Equal Opportunities Employer. However due to the nature of the position there is a Genuine Occupational Requirement to recruit female Personal Healthcare Assistants.
