Bristol, United Kingdom Brunelcare Full time

We have an exciting opportunity to join Brunelcare as a Housing Support Worker. If you enjoy working with a variety of people, and are confident in managing your time then this opportunity is for you.

**About the role**

This role is vital in the delivery of the 'help when you need it' (HWYNI) support service in Bristol, which provides targeted short term interventions for adults aged 55+, living in the community, who have support needs, to prevent and delay the need for longer-term reliance on formal services across adult social care, health and housing.

**The role will also focus on**:

- Supporting adults who have been admitted into hospital, working closely with hospital discharge teams to ensure that the discharge is as smooth as possible, and also use interventions to try and reduce hospital admissions.
- Delivering one to one support to adults who are 55+ living in the community, in a way that promotes independence.
- Working closely with older people, who are 55+ and have support needs including mental health and substance misuse issues.
- Providing support to find appropriate housing where necessary and assistance to move on and provide resettlement activity.
- Liaising with family, other professionals, agencies and organisations, as necessary, (this may include negotiating with debt agencies on the clients behalf, on occasions it may be necessary to attend court and/or deal with bailiffs to support the client), in order to maintain clients ability to remain living independently.
- Regularly review clients' support plans and participate in review meetings.

**About you**

An enthusiastic and motivated individual, you will be passionate about providing a high level of service. You’ll need to have a good knowledge of welfare benefits so you are able to provide advice to clients.

Alongside this you will need a full driving licence and your own transport as you will be required to travel to support our customers within their own homes.

Ideally, you will have experience in providing support to vulnerable adults but this is not essential.

**Job benefits**
- Equivalent to 22 days of paid annual leave (excluding bank holidays), increasing to the equivalent of 25 days after 5 years’ service (pro-rata)
- Access to a fully-funded Medicash Health Plan to save up to £995 on health essentials; like going to the dentist or opticians and access to telephone and video GP appointments
- Free DBS Check
- Holiday Buy & Sell Scheme
- Blue Light Card discount service, offering online and high street discounts
- Cycle to Work Scheme
- Pension Scheme - Death In Service Cover Included
- Company Sick Pay - Linked to the length of service
- Care First Employee Assistance Programme (provides a range of free, confidential services) and in-house Mental Health First Aiders available
- £200 refer a friend bonus

**About Us**:
For over 80 years Brunelcare have been at the forefront of developing ways for people to stay as independent as possible, creating great communities to live, work and thrive in. We are a charity that provides high quality housing, care and support for older people across Bristol, South Gloucestershire and Somerset.

Established in 1941, Brunelcare is an award-winning Bristol based charity providing high-quality housing, care, and support for older people in the South West.

Today, across Bristol, South Gloucestershire, and Somerset, Brunelcare works to support people to remain as independent as possible, for as long as possible.

The extensive range of our services means that people can stay with us however their needs may change.

We are also widely recognised for our expertise and excellence in caring for people living with dementia, and for supporting their families.

As a charity, we do not pay dividends to shareholders, and any profit we make is reinvested back into the services we provide.
