WathuponDearne South Yorkshire, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time

Are you flexible with your working hours? Can you see yourself providing care to adults who need your support?

At Turning Point, we support people with Learning Disabilities across England.

As a Support Worker, you will make a real difference to residents' lives as you improve their daily living skills. Passionate about people, you will enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress with us.

Our service in Wath-upon-Dearne needs people who are team players and can inspire individuals with a learning disability to remain independent. No day is the same and duties will vary from support with day to day living, to supporting individuals to attend doctors' appointments, helping with medication and personal care as well as lots of fun, like days out and holidays. One of the gentleman you would be supporting has a interest in fishing and it would be great if you had a hobby in going fishing or a general interest in fishing.

We use a digital social care record system, to support daily recording, which will make your day-to-day tasks easier and allows you to spend more time with the People We Support.

Training and Development

We offer training to all those who want to develop their skills and competencies not just in the care sector but in other areas too.

Level 2 and 3 Lead Adult Care Worker

Level 3 Operational Team Leader

Please note training will be offered after your probation period ends which is 6 months. Once you begin your training with us you will have your own coach who will support you through your programme.

Shift Patterns

You will be working a range of shifts from 7:00am to 2:00/3:00pm and 2:00/3:00 pm to 9:00/10:00pm, sleep ins or waking nights, some weekends.

Please note that the shifts may vary.

Promoting the independence of people we support

Supporting a full range of daily activities including cleaning and cooking, days out or going away on holiday

Arranging activities in the home and in the local community

Helping residents stay safe and healthy

Assisting with personal care needs

Supporting people with medication

Ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements

What skills and qualities do I need to have?

Whilst knowledge of learning disabilities and complex needs would be beneficial, it isn't essential. Flexible, patient and non-judgemental

As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.

We never stop believing in change for the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we support.

So, if you are enthusiastic, motivated and committed to support others to fulfilling their potential, here at Turning Point, we don't just offer you a job - we offer you a career.
