Caremark Thanet's Care Advice Morning

Caremark Thanet at The Feel Good Factory

One of the great things about living and working in Thanet is that there are so many community organisations. For a community engaged home care provider like Caremark Thanet working with these various groups sits very easily with our ethos. The Feel Good Factory in Margate High Street is one of those organisations.


We were lucky today to go along to The Feel Good Factory - where we were made very welcome - to offer advice about all matters relating to domiciliary care. We met with a number of people who were interested in working in domiciliary care. We were able to explain what working in care is all about and what opportunities are available with Caremark Thanet.

Three of the people we spoke with decided to fill in application forms there and then. We have arranged interviews for these people that will take place in the next few days.


We employ care and support workers from the age of 18 upwards. We know, however, that there are quite a few people in Thanet over the age of 50 who, for one reason or another, are looking to return to work. This was one of our primary aims in visiting the Feel Good Factory today.


So successful was our visit that we will be making regular visits to the Feel Good Factory. We will keep you posted about future visits.

Care Advice from Caremark Thanet at The Feel Good Factory

Finding Information about domiciliary Care Is Complex

The world of domiciliary care is a complex one. Trying to find information can sometimes be a very frustrating experience. Sometimes, you just want someone who can point you in the right direction. And that is what we can do at the Feel Good Factory in Margate on Tuesday 10 April 2018.

Located in the High Street, Margate,The Feel Good Factory offers workouts on power assisted equipment designed to maximise the benefits and minimise the work. We won't be using the equipment next Tuesday, but we will be there to offer advice on all things related to health and social care.

At Caremark Thanet we have been providing home care to the residents of Thanet for over five years and we know that the world of care is a very complicated one. What we aim to do on Tuesday 10 April is to offer advice to people who might be considering looking for care. We can advise on such issues as funding, social services assessments, your right to choose your home care provider and how to go about finding a home care provider. We'll be starting at 10.00 in the morning. If you do have any questions just come along. No appointment is necessary.

Perhaps You Want to Work in Home Care...

...if so, why not come along and hear about the opportunities that we have. There is no age limit on working in domiciliary care. We take on people from aged 18 upwards. On Tuesday 10 April, however, we are particularly keen to talk with people who might be looking at second careers.

If you are looking to get back into work, we have opportunitiesfor you to come and work for us as a care and support worker. You do not need experience; you do need to be caring, reliable, flexible and hardworking.

To sum up, then, on Tuesday 10 April, starting at 10.00 am, Caremark Thanet will be at the Feel Good Factory in Margate to offer advice to people who have questions about care or working in care.

We look forward to seeing you.
