Reablement Care Workers – Community Based
2 Vacancies Available | 21 or 35 Hours per Week | Interviews Being Arranged
Are you a compassionate, reliable and motivated individual who enjoys making a real difference in people's lives?
We are currently recruiting for 2 Reablement Care Workers (Community Carers) to support individuals in their own homes, helping them regain their confidence, independence and everyday living skills following illness, injury or a hospital stay.
This is an excellent opportunity for experienced care workers looking for a rewarding new role within the community.
Unlike traditional domiciliary care, reablement focuses on helping people do things for themselves rather than doing everything for them. You'll play a vital role in supporting individuals to rebuild their abilities, achieve personal goals and live as independently as possible.

- Position 1: 21 hours per week
- Position 2: 35 hours per week
- Shift Pattern: 4-week rolling rota
- Working Hours: Earlies, lates and potentially long days (6:00am–7:00pm)
