Description

Due to exponential growth of our services, we have a number of sessional (bank) opportunities in Edinburgh including:

Gilmerton, Sighthill, Longstone, Westerhailes and Lanark Road.

(Vacancies also available in West Lothian)
Everyone who needs support should get support In order to achieve this we need you

As a result of the great work our frontline workers do on a day to day basis, we are continually getting requests to support more and more people in the area.

Would you like to be part of these successful teams?

So what can you expect?

Month 1: Complete all training and begin shadow shifts in our current services
Months 2 & 3: Work within our current services to enable you to grow in your knowledge, skills and experience and to understand what we are trying to achieve for each individual person we support
From month 4 onwards
As new people come to us requiring support, you will then be matched accordingly
Work as part of a multidisciplinary team to help design the best service for that person
Highlight and partake in any new training required
Work as part of a team to ensure that the support the person receives is continually being assessed and evolves to ensure it is best for that individual

To be part of this team you need to be creative, flexible and resilient.

When a person chooses to move their support to ENABLE Scotland or is about to experience support for the first time, it can be quite a stressful time for that individual and all involved.

You need to want the best for that person and understand that one size does not fit all.

Sometimes with new services it can take weeks or months to uncover the full needs of that individual, and for that reason we need people who have the creativity to help design that service and continually re-evaluate, and also be flexible as any needs change.

Teamwork is paramount to the success of each new service we provide.

The team needs to build up a resilience and support each other to help the person we support to achieve their goals.

Please see that attached job description for a general idea of the duties required within the role of a Personal Assistant.

These will change depending on the needs of the people you are matched with.
