Description

Our clients are two delightful young people in their twenties living in their especially newly adapted bungalow next to the family home with parents, younger siblings and pets.

The support team is developing to be independent of day to day input from the family.

We have dedicated teams for day and waking night shifts and at the moment we are looking for people to join the day team and night team.

We are open to part time work for the night team.

We are seeking to recruit Support Workers with a desire to commit to a positive supportive team focused on providing high quality support and facilitating an enjoyable quality of life for the young people we are supporting.

What the job entails:

Providing care and support for two young people in their twenties who have cerebral palsy and complex disabilities, both need complete assistance with all of their activities of living and associated health conditions including epilepsy, respiratory difficulties as well as postural management.
Having fun and helping create a good quality of life is a vital part of the role. They are both bright and cheerful and very much enjoy the company of others, socialising in restaurants and cafes, participating in arts and crafts, watching films, football, music events, visiting the theatre and outside activities.
You will be able to use your own initiative and work comfortably and sensitively within a friendly, lively, home.
You will be joining a team of friendly and positive people delivering a high standard of care and support 24/7, and be supported very well in all aspects of your work.
Experience in working with young people with additional needs is preferred but personality, common sense and an ability to work flexibly and with initiative are just as important.
You will especially need the ability to support the young people have time and space to express their own thoughts, wishes and character.
Car driver and nonsmoker essential.
If you enjoy undermining colleagues and creating unnecessary drama, do not apply. If you are looking to have an enjoyable job with other kind people please do apply.
We are looking for honest, reliable straightforward people who will commit to making the quality of life of these two young people the best it can be.
