Based at long term residence facility in Hereford, you will be supporting young people with complex disabilities to live their lives to the full. There is no such thing as a typical resident at National Star. They have a range of physical and learning disabilities and different hopes and aspirations for the future. From personalised care to simply being there, you will support the residents to pursue their hobbies, learn life skills such as cooking and laundry and lead a busy and active life. Your first-class people skills will help you to lead a team of care workers, working together to provide a high standard of individualised care, promoting and encouraging our residents' personal independence. After a comprehensive induction into how we work at National Star, you will be able to work on your own initiative and be able to plan and organise effectively. We’re anticipating that you will have at least two year’s care experience, ideally with people with a learning and/or physical disability. However it’s not a deal breaker if your care experience has been working in other care fields and you want to take your career in a different direction. It is however important that you have a Level 3 in health or social care. The post requires shift work, with early shifts starting at 7am and late shifts ending at 10pm and 11pm with alternating weekend working.
