Role and responsibilities
We’re on the hunt for genuinely caring, hands-on Support Workers with a passion for enhancing the quality of life of the people we support. As a support worker with us you'll be helping people to gain more independence in their daily lives, whilst working within a dynamic team to support a fantastic group of people.
Our nursing service Farnham is a welcoming and friendly environment. You’ll be enhancing the lives of the people we support by teaching them new life skills, assisting with personal care, encouraging them to access their local communities, socialising and doing activities. One day you could be out with the people we support in local bars and pubs; the next you could be unwinding with them playing video games, watching films or going to the cinema.
This is an amazing role for someone who is looking to really make a difference to someone's life and to help them grow in confidence and independence so that they meet their goals, whether this be making dinner alone or going on holiday.
Requirements
We’re interested in our Support Workers having both the right experience and the right values. At this service our Support Workers should hold a full UK driving license, be resilient, flexible and composed in their approach, have experience with following Positive Behaviour Support plans and reflective practice, as well as experience working with individuals requiring enhanced support, including behaviours of distress, mental health conditions, autism, forensic histories and people who have experienced trauma.
Why choose us?
You don’t need to have experience to be a fantastic Support Worker; what you need is a passion for enhancing the quality of life for the people we support, a desire to learn and a genuine caring attitude. We embrace people’s differences and encourage you to Be You. As long as you have the passion to make someone’s life better, we can provide the skills and development opportunities to build a great career. We encourage staff to Grow Together through our training programme, starting at induction and continuing throughout your career, with opportunities for promotion and progression and job security in a sector-leading organisation.
