Your Role:
Support Worker
Support workers assist clients with daily tasks to enable them to remain as independent as possible within their own home, promoting a person-centred approach.
You may be required to support clients with tasks such as getting up, washing, shaving, and dressing, preparing and serving meals, continence care, keeping their home clean and safe, administering medication and attending appointments. You may also be required to look after clients’ pets or even just to keep in touch with their loved ones or take them shopping.
You will be issued with a work phone which you will use to record details of the support you have provided with each of your clients and liaise with the senior team about any issues. There will always be someone on the end of the phone when needed, so you will never feel alone.
You will be offered a range of training to suit your needs and the needs of our customers, including the opportunity to start a QCF Diploma in Health and Social Care.
A friendly manner and caring attitude is essential.
