Red Rose Care
ApplyYour new workplace
We’re Red Rose Care, a “Good” CQC-rated home care provider supporting people across Preston, Chorley and South Ribble.
For us, great care is personal. It’s about getting to know the person behind the visit, building trusted relationships and supporting people to live as independently as possible in their own homes. For our team, it means being properly paid, valued and supported to do a job that genuinely matters.
Lunchtime to teatime
Lunch, afternoon medication, a cup of tea and a proper chat – this round is about supporting people through the middle of their day, following the routines that matter to them.
Shifts usually run from 12pm to 5pm, covering lunchtime and the afternoon. Alongside personal care and meals, afternoon visits often include social visits, keeping people company and helping them stay connected to their community.
Daily routines are personal, and people feel more settled when it's a familiar face at the door, so we're looking for team members who can commit to regular daytime shifts. With your mornings and evenings your own, it can fit well around family life, another role or a course.
What you'd be doing
You’ll visit people in their own homes across Chorley, providing support that’s individual to them, their routines and what matters most in their lives. This could include washing and dressing, toileting and continence care, medication, preparing meals and helping around the home.
It’s also about promoting independence, offering choice and building trusted relationships – becoming a familiar face and making a positive difference to someone’s day.
Personal care is a real part of many visits and can feel daunting at first. You’ll receive full training and shadowing until you feel confident.
What you'd earn
The rest of it
No experience? Not a problem
Some of our team came into care from something else entirely – retail, hospitality, warehouse work or raising a family. You’ll get a full induction, ongoing training and shadow experienced team members until you feel ready.
What we can’t teach is kindness, reliability and genuinely caring about the people you support - turning up day after day and treating every person with the dignity and respect they deserve.
Some testimonials from our team
“I’ve always felt supported and valued here. There’s always someone there when you need advice, and you really do feel part of a team.” - Caron
“The best part of the job is getting to know the people you support. You build real relationships, and knowing you’ve made someone’s day that little bit better is so rewarding.”- Chris
What you need
A full UK driving licence and access to your own car - you’ll be travelling between people’s homes throughout your shift, so this is essential. You’ll also need business-use insurance.
You'll need to be 18 or over for this role.
Red Rose Care is an Equal Opportunities employer and welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds.
