Recruiting in Liverpool

Hiring home carers across Liverpool's neighbourhoods

Because home care providers dominate the city's care market, competition for good domiciliary staff is intense, and travel time between visits decides whether a round works. A carer who lives in Norris Green is far more useful to a north Liverpool round than one coming from Speke, even though both live in the city. The pool also stretches beyond the boundary into Sefton, Knowsley and across the river on the Wirral.

Nursing homes recruit alongside a hospital trust that runs three city hospitals, and nursing students at the city's universities and college may look for care work alongside their studies. Liverpool City Council also supports people on direct payments to recruit their own PAs, which adds to demand for the same carers. The city's older population is growing fastest, so that pressure is unlikely to ease.

Carer Badge lets you see who lives near the streets your round covers, and whether they drive, before you pick up the phone.
