Blossom Home Care in Durham is a local family-owned business, part of a network who have proudly cared for people across the region since 2015. We deliver care to people in their own homes and all our clients have a minimum 50-minute visit and set visit times which means they know what time we're going to get there. To be able to offer this, we can only take on carers who can drive and have access to a car for work.

Working for Blossom

The most rewarding care job in Durham, and here’s why… we provide care and support to our clients – support in so many positive and rewarding ways. Each client’s care plan is as unique as they are; we want our clients to continue to enjoy the things that can make a real difference to their lives for as long as they are able – leading to happier people to care for.
