Are you a support worker looking for a new challenge?
Can you communicate using British Sign Language (BSL)? We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Residential Support Worker to join our fantastic team within one of our residential home's based in Halifax / Doncaster.
We provide residential care for young adults between the ages of 16+ who are either profoundly deaf, have significant hearing loss and/or complex needs.
Where there is deafness, challenges exist for both the resident and the support worker.
You will overcome this with training, support and supervision that The Cambian Group will provide.
No day will be the same but amongst other things you will be responsible for providing support and care to each individual which includes such things as travel with the residents (use of the company car), care planning, meal planning, organising and facilitating social activities and maintaining the home.
We are the Cambian group, the largest independent provider of care and education for children and young people. Those we care for and those who care for them.
Requirements for DBS and reference checking will be under-taken in line with government regulations and safer recruitment best practice.
