Community Support Aide (Flexible / On demand)

A flexible way to support your local community, earn on your own terms, and play a part in a patient’s safe return home!

We are looking for local residents in Walsall who can provide short, practical support to people returning home from a hospital stay. This is a flexible, paid-per-visit role with no minimum hours or ongoing commitment — you only accept visits when the time and location suit you.

About the Role

You will offer basic, non-clinical assistance to patients in their homes. This may include light household help, simple errands, checking if any patient devices are working properly, checking that someone is settling in safely after discharge or helping a patient travel home from the hospital. Many patients appreciate a helping hand as they regain confidence settling back at home. No prior experience is required, as you will receive the comprehensive training and support you need.

What We Offer

• A chance to make a real and immediate difference to someone’s return home
• Flexible work — choose visits that fit your time and location
• Hyperlocal opportunities within your own community
• Paid per visit, with fast payment
• Training and ongoing support so you feel prepared and confident
• Training and ongoing support to help you feel confident in the role

What You Need

• Willingness to visit patients in your preferred neighbourhoods (sometimes even on the same day!)
• Ability to work independently
• Ability to communicate clearly and be reliable
• A supportive and practical attitude
• Comfortable using technology and following instructions

How to Get Started

To be considered for this role:

• Sign up at app.careforme.io
• Fill in your profile
• Complete the onboarding steps (including a DBS background check)
• Receive a short training from CareForMe (online)
• Once onboarding and training are complete, you will be able to accept visits through the platform

If you want flexible, local work that lets you support people in your area in a practical and meaningful way, we’d be glad to hear from you.
