Community Integrated Care is one of the UK's largest health and social care charities. We work hard enriching the lives of the people we support with many different care needs. 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. We have strong values and we're proud to pioneer new ways of delivering social care to stand out in our sector.

We will help you to develop your talents with a range of specialist training, including the opportunity to learn Positive Behaviour Support methods, Makaton and the Picture Exchange System.
During the recruitment process, you will get to meet some of the people we support in a nearby service. This will allow you to see their wonderful personalities first-hand and fully understand the level of support that they require.
The people we support are unique, and have support needs ranging from learning disabilities, autism, epilepsy, mental health, and other complex needs, which could mean that they sometimes display behaviours that can challenge. It's our mission to ensure the people we support can, and do, lead their best life possible!
You will know how to connect with people and be passionate about supporting people to live independently. We Enable, which are at the heart of everything we do and ensure that we deliver high quality, consistent care and support.
Great social skills, it's important that you can develop relationships with the people we support, and their family and friends too.
