ALHomecare’s Live-in Carer Application Process

The first step in the application process is to go to the Get Started page of our website, www.alhomecare.ie. On the Get Started you will see the Manager’s Message and the Family Info Booklet. Please read these two documents and then if you are happy to proceed, fill in our online application form which is half way down that page. As part of the application form you are asked to submit a photo of your relative and the inside of their house. If you prefer you can email us those photos later to marketing@alhomecare.ie and put your relative’s name as the subject on that email so we can link the photos to the application.

Once we have received the completed application from you, we start to match up with a suitable carer. Once we have identified a suitable carer we will send you that carer’s profile. If you like the carer’s profile, then we will arrange a phone, zoom or skype interview between you and the carer. If you are both happy to proceed with the placement after that interview, then we send you the employment contract and the placement fee invoice.

This whole process from submitting the initial application to signing the contract usually takes 2 to 3 weeks to complete. Sometimes it can happen faster than this, if everybody cooperates very efficiently during the process.
