Carers at Elder

This is Fay

5 years experience

NVQ Level 4 in Care

Fay has plenty of experience helping individuals with dementia. The best part of her job she says, is being able to connect with the people she looks after.

When it comes to finding the best carers for our customers, we take the whole process very seriously. Here’s how:

The initial assessment

All Elder carers make an online application where they must outline their experience, qualifications and other types of training.
The care exam

If we're happy with their application, we ask the carer to fill out a care test detailing various scenarios and ask them how they would respond.
The interview

We then invite the carer in for an interview. This is a chance for us to meet them face-to-face and we ask them to bring any relevant paperwork along too.
Safety first

Elder wants you to feel safe at home. We always run background checks on all carers we work with and ultimately ask ourselves, would we let this person look after our mum?
