About the role
Fraser Elite is a family-run care company based in Foveran. We offer holistic care by assisting, enabling, and maintaining the overall wellbeing of our clients, helping them preserve their dignity and independence while staying in their own homes.
At Fraser Elite, every aspect of our home care service is tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. We provide a minimum of one hour visits to our clients. This personalised approach allows us to spend more time providing the necessary care and support.
Duties include providing various care and support to our clients, such as: personal care, medication assistance, meal preparation, household cleaning tasks, laundry, shopping, and companionship.
