Thank you so much for all that you do. Without your help, my Mum would not be able to live in her home or maintain a level of independence which is so precious to her.
Many, many thanks.

Outstanding Home care and Health Care Assistants

We understand that it is not always easy for you and your family to ask someone new into their home to provide additional support and care.

You can be reassured that each of our MyLife Assistants has been carefully chosen for their empathy, life skills and compassion as well as their professional skills and training. Our recruitment and interview process is also designed to identify thinking skills to ensure that they are able to perform well in their role.

We support and nurture our Assistants, both professionally and in their personal wellbeing, so that they feel empowered and energised to deliver a quality service.

Carer training and qualifications

All providers of care in England and Scotland must adhere to certain regulatory standards, inspected by the regulatory bodies, the Care Quality Commission in England and the Care Inspectorate in Scotland.
At MyLife we strive to provide standards of care that go above and beyond what is required of us, and this is facilitated in part by our outstanding training programme.

All our Assistants and Health Care Assistants complete a five day MyLife specific introductory training programme when they join, regardless of their previous experience and qualifications. Staff also complete annual refresher training to ensure they are up to speed on new developments within the industry.

Our Health Care Assistants receive additional training carried out by Registered Nurses, both in the classroom and in the field, to up skill them for their specialist care role.

In addition, MyLife employees can choose to take additional training to further their career, or for a specific customer need.

The MyLife family of carers

We believe that our MyLife Assistants and Health Care Assistants fulfil an amazing role in helping people stay in their own homes, often going above and beyond what is asked of them.

Our local branch network, led by care managers, helps to nurture a strong and sympathetic team ethos. We encourage active feedback through regular one to one meetings and service shadowing.

MyLife employees receive above average pay rates and a competitive range of benefits on joining the company. We invest in new technology to enhance rotas and communications so that employees have a better working experience.
We also recognise the important work of our MyLife teams through long service awards and iCare Awards.

We look after our employees so they feel supported and able to deal with the demands of the role.

MyLife provides care for my 95 year old mother at home. Having had care provided by three previous providers I can quite honestly say that MyLife stands head and shoulders above the previous firms. My mother enthuses about the service provided and wishes that she had been introduced to the firm earlier.
