Support Worker

Hayling Island, United Kingdom FindersKeepers Rec. Full time

**REF: AR**

As an outdoor activities fan, our client loves to play archery and is a novice golfer, he also rides a tandem. Love to help out looking after the animals at his local farm and has a pet cat. He loves being social and visiting the cinema so there will be plenty to talk about whilst preparing for his night-time routine. If you love active outdoor sports or animals you could be a great fit for this one-to-one care role.

**Our Client & the Role**:

- A is an intelligent 30-year-old man with an Acquired Brain Injury incurred when he was involved in a Road Traffic Accident 10 years ago which has left him with right-sided weakness.
- He requires help with all aspects of personal care, with meal and drinks preparation/consumption and assistance with walking indoors as he can be unsteady. He requires help in attending his activities and attending social activities in the community or shopping where he gets around on his powered wheelchair or scooter.
- A is non-verbal but communicates well using a text-to-voice communication system.
- He lives alone in an adapted self-contained bungalow, supported by his Care Team.
- During quieter periods of the shift, you will be expected to tidy the home and carry out light household tasks including some laundry.
- A can become frustrated and impatient, and this will reflect in some non-violent behavioral displays but with well-organized routines, these can be avoided.

**About You**:
You will be happy to join our client on days out. You will need to be a driver, as you will need to drive our client in his own automatic car.

As you will be helping look after
**A’s** pet cat, you will not have any allergies and be happy to help with pet care.

You will be an experienced caregiver, with qualification to NVQ2 level or equivalent and ideally with experience supporting clients with an Acquired Brain Injury. Client-specific training/shadow shifts will be given and paid for. This training will initially take place across the week, including weekdays so you would need to have availability, at least for the first couple of months, to undertake training on these days. Following the initial period, periodically there will be update training and supervision/team meetings which will take place on weekdays and applicants must have the flexibility to attend ad hoc events when required.

You will be a positive, caring individual who has a sociable personality and a nurturing approach to
**A’s** care and have patience in communicating with him when conversing or caring for him and encourages our client in both his chosen hobbies and other activities which he might find of interest. It would be great if you shared an interest in some of our client’s hobbies but an open attitude to learning about his interests is equally valued.

You will work with our client and his therapists, following his Care plan and encouraging him with voice and physiotherapy exercises, to help him achieve his rehabilitation goals.

**Hours / Shifts**:
This role would be for a total of 24 hours worked as per the shift pattern below:

- Tuesday: 11.45 to 18.30
- Friday: 14.45 to 22.00 / 22.00 to 08.00 Saturday

Additional optional non-contractual shifts are also available to cover holidays/staff absences.

**Pay**:

- £14 per hour on Weekdays
- £15 per hour Weekends
- £16 per hour Bank Holidays

An additional £1 per hour will be paid over and above the rates shown for overtime.

£10.42 per hour Sleeping Nights

Our posts require an enhanced DBS certificate and operate a non-smoking environment, at all times.
