Thompson Holistic Care Services (THCS) is a domiciliary care agency based in London, whose mission is supporting Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivors across the UK. THCS specialises in supporting clients with histories of non-engagement - whether due to breakdowns in professional and personal relationships - through highly-responsive, client-centered support packages.
At THCS, we support adults living with enduring, complex brain injuries and support needs to live more safely and independently in their own homes and communities. With the high-quality continuity of support provided by our rehabilitation support workers, we work with multi-disciplinary teams (MDTs) such as case managers, social workers, neurologists, psychologists, and therapists to carry out evidence-based rehabilitation programs.
THCS takes pride in delivering high-quality continuity of support for all of our clients, whilst support all of our staff. We recruit specifically and to permanent roles, providing highly-trained and experienced rehabilitation support workers to find the right 'match' for our clients - most of our support workers have been working closely with us for more than four years. Our organisation has been described as a "phenomenal" boutique support service, often going above and beyond to help those with life-changing injuries to get their lives back on track.
We are currently recruiting a male or female rehabilitation support worker to work with our ABI/TBI client in Manchester. Client 1 (2 x sessions a week) has a keen interest in Golf and Fishing and would like to work with someone who enjoys these types of activities.
Our clients are based in Manchester (2 sessions with one client and one afternoon session with the other, 5 hours per session), are seeking an experienced ABI/TBI rehabilitation support worker to help them to build a daily routine, and to facilitate access to his local community. The ideal rehabilitation support worker will also help our clients to develop and maintain greater purpose, structure, and daily routine as they try to regain independence with independent living skills and activities of daily living, whilst supporting them to engage with his multi-disciplinary team and therapists. No personal care is required.
Our clients require a rehabilitation support worker for 15 hours weekly, which is divided into 3 x 5-hour sessions a week, paying £13.00 to £16.00 per hour dependent on experience. Access to your own vehicle is desirable to facilitate community visits with our client. Candidates seeking sponsorship need not apply.
The ideal rehabilitation support worker should be a resilient, reliable, and experienced ABI/TBI support worker who demonstrates a high standard of written and verbal communication skills, quickly builds and maintains positive working relationships, and works calmly and effectively in challenging environments. If you are interested in working with our small, highly-focused team to empower our client to live more independently, then please forward your CV.
