A Career That Cares: Why Home Care in Lancaster Could Be Your Next Step
Discover a rewarding career in home care with Home Instead Lancaster. Flexible hours, full training, and a chance to make a real difference in people’s lives.
If you’re looking for work that makes a difference, something more than just a job, home care could be the perfect fit. At Home Instead Lancaster, we support older and vulnerable people to stay safe, happy, and independent in their own homes. We’re proud to offer a career where kindness, time, and quality care really matter.
Whether you’re new to care or returning after time away, this could be your chance to step into a role that offers flexibility, community, and genuine job satisfaction.
The Role of a Care Professional
Our Care Professionals support clients across Lancaster and the surrounding areas with a wide range of needs. Some clients may need help getting ready in the morning, others may simply want some company or support with tasks like cooking or shopping. Every day is different, but what stays the same is the impact you have.
This isn’t a rushed or task-focused role. At Home Instead, all our visits are a minimum of one hour. That gives you time to chat, build trust, and provide support without the pressure of rushing from one client to the next.
What you might help with:
– Personal care, such as washing, dressing, or medication reminders
– Meal prep or enjoying lunch together
– Light housekeeping or running errands
– Friendly conversation or companionship
– Accompanied trips to local parks, shops or community events
Training, Support, and Team Culture
You don’t need care experience to get started. What matters most is your caring attitude. If you’re warm, dependable, and genuinely enjoy helping others, we’ll provide the rest.
Here’s what you can expect when you join us:
– Full, paid training and induction
– Support from a local, approachable office team
– Regular check-ins and ongoing learning
– Opportunities to grow within the role
You’ll never feel like you’re on your own. Our team is friendly, collaborative, and always happy to help.
Fit Work Around Your Life
We know that everyone’s life is different. That’s why we offer flexible shifts, whether you want to work mornings, evenings, weekends, or a mix. It’s ideal for parents, students, semi-retirees, or anyone who wants a part-time role with purpose.
You’ll be working locally, so you won’t be commuting across the county. You’ll support clients in and around Lancaster, which means you’ll get to know your community and feel like a real part of it.
