Overview
Join to apply for the Female Support Worker role at Acuity Care Group.
Pay rate: £14.50 per hour (Monthly Pay)
Shift Pattern: 16 hours per week. Day Shifts (8am-4pm).
We\'ve got a rewarding opportunity for the right person to work with an individual living in their family home in Gillingham. This person has a Brain Injury and suffered from a stroke but this does not define them. They have a great sense of humour and a wide range of hobbies including cooking, shopping, gardening, going to the cinema and trips to the seaside with their dog. To make the most of trips out and about, we need people who are local to Gillingham and can drive a car with a full UK Driving Licence.
Enriching activities will be an important factor in your support, and you will bring a wonderfully empathetic approach to truly make a difference to this person\'s life.
What will your shift involve?
In this role you will provide high-quality care on a 1:1 basis, ensuring compassionate and attentive care tailored to their specific needs. You will engage with them in meaningful activities and take them out in the community to promote social interaction and well-being. You will also support with household tasks to maintain a clean and organized living environment that fosters comfort and independence. Clear and confident communication in their preferred manner will be essential to building a strong and trusting relationship.
