      The role

This includes helping clients to relearn skills in their lives, such as personal care such as washing, personal hygiene, dressing as well as support with mobility and preparing meals.

      You will provide support in a way that helps people 'to do' rather than 'doing for' people. Initially hands-on assistance may be required but Promoting Independence Assistants will enable and encourage the service user to do as much for themselves as possible.

      You will need to have good communication skills and excellent organisation skills. It is also important that you have an understanding of maintaining the health and safety, and wellbeing of service users in their own homes.

      Travel required – You will be required to travel around Worcestershire, so a Full driving licence and own vehicle is essential.
