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

Each person we support has different support needs, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.

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. 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.

Let us introduce you to Our Mental Health Services in South Ayrshire :

Mental health encompasses social, psychological, and emotional wellbeing.

Working in our Mental Health services is an incredibly rewarding role. We offer a mixture of Female and Male supports depending on their own choice and support needs.

We are looking for kind, patient, motivated, and committed staff to help people we support to manage the symptoms of their mental health diagnosis to lead fulfilling life.

A typical day for people we support in our Mental Health Services could be support to attend an appointment, going to the shops to ensure all the essentials are bought, a wander around their local community to find interest groups, or simply to get some fresh air.

In our mental health services, much valued support consists of Listening, understanding and responding to peoples needs.

In our roles as Personal assistants we work alongside Mental Health services such as Social work, Community Psychiatric Nurses, Occupational Therapists and other Health professionals.
