Overview
Community Integrated Care is one of the UK’s largest health and social care charities. We work hard to enrich the lives of people with many different care needs. It’s exciting and rewarding work, and we’re full of pride and passion for what we do. Since the early days, we’ve grown to provide many innovative and bespoke care services to thousands of people across England and Scotland. We want to provide support based on the principles of choice, dignity and respect. This resonates in our vision of ‘Your Life, Your Choice’ and our strategy ‘Best Lives Possible’.
We have strong values and we’re proud to pioneer new ways of delivering social care to stand out in our sector. In the past two years, we have won or made the shortlist for over 100 national and regional awards. We are focused on our people. Our Support Workers are dedicated and passionate about going ‘the extra mile’ for the people we support and in return, we go the extra mile for them by investing in pay, recognition, wellbeing and continued professional and personal development. We will provide you with all the training, support and personal protective equipment you need in your role and will help you develop, should you decide you want to develop your career with us.
We are looking for a Full Time Support Worker to support a young gentleman living in the house. He is supported with 2 staff at all times, enjoys 1:1 time, and can choose who supports him at different times. He loves arts and crafts, going to discos and dances, walking in community parks, drive-throughs at McDonald’s, walking, tabletop activities, potting plants, and trampolining. He enjoys going out for runs in his car and collecting his medication from the Pharmacy, so having a driver would be preferable. In the house he likes watching DVDs and listening to music and having a laugh.
We know it takes a special person to work in social care and recruit for values-based fit from a range of backgrounds. We include, we deliver, we aspire, we respect, and we enable. If you share these values, apply to join our team.
