We have an exciting role on offer within our Prevention, Provider & Support Services as a Casual Care Assistant.
About Us
Due to changes within our service, an exciting opportunity has arisen within Levick Court, which provides care and support to adults with learning disabilities during their short stay breaks. We are looking for casual care assistants to support our existing team in providing individualised care and support to the people who access our service.
Levick Court offers short stay breaks for adults with learning disabilities and is a 24 hour service. The building is purpose built, which ensures that we can meet the needs of a wide range of individuals who access our service. We have spacious communal areas including multi-purpose activity rooms, sensory room, media room and secure gardens available to those accessing our services.
We have domestic and catering staff on site; however, this role does involve some additional housekeeping duties.

This role will appeal to you if you have a passion for helping others, you like being involved in activities with the people that you support and want a role with flexible working hours.
You will have good communication skills which will assist in keeping people engaged during their stay.
If successful, you will be joining a friendly supportive team that is passionate about delivering excellent care services to all.
