***
Our really sociable client loves nothing more than visiting her local coffee shop and having a chat about her hobbies which include fashion, photography and music. Perhaps you share these interests or could possibly introduce her to other activities she might like to explore. If you think you would be a good fit, get in touch, interviews are being booked shortly.
**Our Client & the Role**:
We are looking for two female support workers to join a small friendly home care team to provide support to our 59-year-old client who has an Acquired Brain Injury. Our client is lovely, sociable, educated lady who is generally very amiable however, on occasions she can become bored and therefore frustrated and this can lead to short behavioural outbursts.
Full training in all aspects of our client’s care will be given and you will be supported by her Case Manager to work towards her rehabilitation goals.
**About You**:
- Our client would be best supported by a support worker who is kind but strong of character and ideally has similar interests but most important they should have a positive outlook and be able to encourage our client to be more independent.
- You will ideally have experience supporting someone with an Acquired Brain Injury and be able to manage behaviors often associated with this type of injury, helping our client to become calm after such episodes and subsequently continuing with the daily planned activities. You will follow our clients’ Care plan, but also use your own initiative to provide motivation and structure to each day.
- You will cook for our client, go shopping with her, do some light housework and laundry and encourage her to become involved in these activities.
- You will ideally have at least one year’s experience in a Support Worker role but more important is your desire and aptitude to provide support for our client.
- You will be a driver who is happy to take our client out for coffee and other trips in her manual car.
**Pay**:
£14.00 per hour weekdays/£16.00 per hour weekends/bank holidays/£90.25 sleeping night (from 22:00 to 07:30)
**Hours/Shifts**:
- This is a permanent role where you can choose to work between 15 and 31.5 hours per week depending on which shifts you work.
- If working an afternoon shift, you will need to work the sleeping night shift which follows.
- Saturday - 07:30 to 15:00 or 14:30 to 07:30 Sunday. The latter shift includes a sleeping night from 10pm; staff are not usually disturbed during the night.
- Sunday - 07:30 to 15:00 or 14:30 to 07:30 Monday. The latter shift includes a sleeping night from 10pm; staff are not usually disturbed during the night.
- Thursday - 07:30 to 15:00 or 14:30 to 07:30 Friday. The latter shift includes a sleeping night from 10pm; staff are not usually disturbed during the night
