ISCO 3412 · v1.2.1
Care home workers provide domiciliary services to vulnerable adults including frail elderly or disabled people who are living with physical impairment or convalescing, following a specific plan to provide day-to-day care to clients. They look after the physical and mental wellbeing of clients by providing them social care. These services could be developed in residential homes, care homes or in the patient's home. In relation to this last case, they aim to improve patients' lives in the community and assure patients can live safely and independently in their own home.
