Are you a compassionate and experienced Live-In Carer looking for a rewarding role?

Join Paragon Home Healthcare and make a real impact in the life of a young, active gentleman with spinal injury care needs in St Albans (AL2). If you’re a confident driver with a passion for fitness, this is the perfect role for you!

🏋️ About the Role

This role is perfect for an empathetic and energetic carer who values privacy, connection, and an active lifestyle. You’ll provide one-on-one care, assisting with mobility, personal care, spinal injury toileting, and daily living tasks. Since the client enjoys outings and fitness, a shared interest in gym & wellness would be a great fit!

📍 Location: St Albans AL2

🚗 Driver: Essential – the client goes out every day and carers need to drive the client's adapted vehicle and must have clean driver's licence. You must be a driver and happy to help with regular community outings.

📆 Rota & Pay:

Job type: Live-in

🕒 Shift Pattern: 2 weeks live-in, followed by 2 weeks off

Following 1-week rest, you have the option to work with another client for 1 week. Alternatively, if eligible, you can be a part of our Standby rota, working conveniently from home.

What We’re Looking For:
Female carer required due to the need to provide personal care (Equality Act 2010, Schedule 9, Part 1).We welcome applications from female carers who are kind, dependable and confident supporting someone in their own home.

Paragon is a specialist provider of spinal cord injury and complex care. You’ll receive full training before you start, and where possible, time will be given to get familiar with the care routine. No previous experience with spinal care is needed.
