Healthcare Assistant – Enniscorthy & Surrounding Areas
Job Description
Posted on: August 12, 2026
€14.15 - €16.00 per hour | Mileage & Travel Time Paid at 48c Per Mile | 5 to 35 Hours a Week If you've been searching for a role where you're valued, supported, and able to give real care without compromising your wellbeing - this could be it. Bluebird Care is recruiting Healthcare Assistants across Enniscorthy and the surrounding areas. This is community-based care, supporting people in the comfort of their own homes - with a schedule built around your availability and real support just a phone call away. What The Role Involves You'll support people one-to-one with:
- Personal care (bathing, dressing, toileting)
- Preparing light meals and helping with day-to-day routines
- Providing company and reassurance
- Assisting with safe movement around the home
You're not rushing between clients. You'll care for the same people each week, at the same time - so they get consistency, and you get peace of mind. Hours Built Around You We provide care seven days a week, 8am to 8pm. That means there's room to build a week that actually suits you.
- A few hours a week? 5 or 10 hours is a genuine option. Plenty of our team fit care around family, study or another job.
- Something steadier? 15 or 20 hours a week, on a pattern you agree at the start and keep.
- Full-time? Up to 35 hours a week.
Our busiest periods are mornings from 8am-12 and evenings from 4pm-8pm, so there's most availability in those blocks. But we run calls right through the day - if the middle of the day suits you better, say so and we'll work with it. Once your pattern is agreed, it stays put. Pay & Benefits
- €14.15 to €16.00 per hour, depending on experience and qualifications
- Mileage and travel time between calls paid at 48c per mile
- Ongoing training and development
- A local team that's genuinely there for you
Need to Complete Your QQI? If you've looked after a family member or have hands-on care experience but haven't completed QQI yet - we can help. We provide heavily subsidised QQI training in Care Skills and Care of the Elderly, and we'll support you through it. Who Succeeds In This Role
