    • Key working with individuals to support them in setting out a care and support plan
    • Following care plans and writing comprehensive care notes
    • Providing a high quality, personalised care and support service including the sensitive delivery of personal care and managing medication
    • Helping customers to get up, washed and dressed
    • Supporting customers to go to into the local community e.g. visits to local shops and cafes, visiting friends and attending GP appointments
    • Promoting a positive culture by engaging with customers to prevent social isolation
    • Working with customers and other staff members to ensure a clean and comfortable environment
    • Promoting safe practices and undertaking risk assessments

    Skills and experiences:

    • Prior experience delivering personal care is desirable
    • A kind, caring nature
    • Ability to work well both as part a team and on own initiative
    • Ability to be flexible and adapt to the changing needs of customers
    • Excellent organisation skills
    • NVQ 2 in Health and Social Care, or willing to work towards, is desirable

    Are you ready to be your best?

    Brilliant work deserves brilliant benefits As part of our commitment to making Sanctuary Supported Living a great place to work, here are just some of the ways we'll reward you:

    • At least 25 days paid holiday, rising to 30 days after 5 years' service (plus public holidays)
    • A pension scheme with employer contributions
    • A variety of online discounts and rewards from major retailers
    • Health and well-being plans
    • Life assurance
    • Family friendly arrangements, including opportunities for flexible working
    • Tax efficient savings through our Cycle to Work scheme
