Carer Support Worker

1 week ago


Edinburgh, United Kingdom Central Carers Association Full time

**Please read the Role profile carefully before applying for this role. This is not a care assistant post, it is an office based support worker who provides information and counselling to unpaid carers.**

Adult carers are people who help to look after a relative, partner, friend or child who has a disability, illness, a mental health issue, addiction, or frailty.

Providing unpaid care for someone can be rewarding but it can also be a huge responsibility that can affect other areas of a person’s life, such as, job prospects, relationships, education, family life and their own health and wellbeing.

The post holder will work closely with carers and network partners to offer support, and information to adult carers across the Falkirk area. You will engage with carers encouraging them to take up their right to have an Adult Carer Support Plan and become actively involved in local and national forums and groups to have their views and opinions heard.

The successful candidate will be enthusiastic and motivated, have good interpersonal skills and the ability to use their own initiative whilst contributing effectively within a team.

Interview dates TBC but are likely to be held in January .
