Frequent questions
What is the difference between home care and a care home?
In home care you visit clients at home and often work alone on the road. In a care home you work as a team in the house, with regular residents and a daily structure. Both offer predictable shifts – we are happy to discuss which way of working suits you.
Is RAI experience required?
Not necessarily, but in demand: many care homes assess care needs with RAI-NH. If you know it, you settle in faster – and many homes run courses on it themselves.
Are there roles without night shifts?
Yes, often. Many care homes have dedicated night staff, so day shifts are possible. Tell us what you want, we filter for it.
