The job itself
The Carer Relief service supports people living with dementia and their carers within the community. This service allows the carer to have quality time away from their caring role. The length of support can be either a couple of hours or a full day depending on the carer's needs. The Carer's Emergency Cover is a crucial part of the service. You will be supporting the cared-for person to remain in their own home environment in the event of the carer being taken out of their caring role due to an unplanned emergency. We are recruiting for positions that will cover the whole of the East Riding; therefore, it is essential that you can drive and have a car accessible when at work. You will be contracted to work 20 hours a week as a Carer Response Worker covering priority and social sits. This equates to 4 shifts on a 7-day rolling rota. In addition to the 20 hours, you are expected to take part in the on-call rota, which can be a maximum of 12 hours known as Emergency Standby. This attracts a standby allowance, plus additional pay for all hours worked when called out. If you feel you can make a difference to vulnerable people and their carers living in their own homes, and you are caring, enthusiastic, and motivated, then this job is for you.
