We are recruiting a part time Support Worker to support two fantastic young women in the Bury St Edmunds and Newmarket area.

The role
We're looking for a supportive staff member that understands learning disability, ASD, and mental health.

A staff member that is kind and understanding and who can provide consistency, continuity, and predictability - to minimise anxiety.

Both women are very active and enjoy activities such as swimming, bowling, going to the beach, out for coffee and lunch, shopping and watching pantomimes or circus performances.

A degree of personal care support will be provided, such as prompting with a morning and evening bubble bath, supervision with brushing teeth and prompting to use the toilet.

They also require assistance to visit medical appointments, arrange prescriptions, administering medication and assistance to ensure a balanced nutritious diet.
