Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?
Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone with a learning disability to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!
Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.
The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me
The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. So whatever your interests are; be it sewing, baking, having a cup of tea and chat to horse riding, swimming or hill-walking, we want to hear from you!
A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse; Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.
Responsibilities
* Support individuals with varied needs, including aspects of personal care, moving and handling, or positive behavioural support.
* Assist individuals to expand their social networks and connections while protecting their safety and wellbeing.
* Collaborate with the bespoke team around each person to meet safety, wellbeing and aspiration goals.
Qualifications and Requirements
* Ability to adapt your communication style to develop successful and enjoyable relationships with the people we support.
* Commitment to work with individuals through their personal support plans to help them achieve goals and celebrate successes.
* Positive and flexible outlook; able to work independently and as part of a team.
* No prior care experience required; we recruit based on values and transferable skills. This role supports individuals to get the most out of life and aims to create an inclusive society for people with learning disabilities.
