Gateshead, United Kingdom Mental Health Concern Full time

**We currently have an exciting opportunity within our Community Challenging Behaviours Team (CCBT) for a passionate and highly motivated individual to join us as a Support Worker.**

As a key member of CCBT, you will be out in the community working with families and nursing home staff caring for people with dementia. By giving practical advice and hands-on support, our team aims to reduce the impact of these challenges on caregivers and, where possible, prevent the challenges from happening in the first place.

As part of this small and supportive team, you will work directly with clients and their carers within their own homes or within care-homes. You be involved in the process of assessment, care planning, training and education of carers and families. You will attend and give valuable input at regular reviews and debriefing sessions and will be expected to support the implementation of a variety of interventions for the treatment and management of challenging behaviours. The role will involve some aspects of lone working with support and guidance from qualified staff.

**This is a part-time role.**

**We would love to hear from you if you possess the following**:

- Have a sound understanding of dementia plus previous experience with people who have a dementia-type illness and present with a behaviour that challenges
- Have a genuine desire to work with this client group
- An effective communicator with strong interpersonal skills
- Able and willing to regularly work without direct supervision, using your own initiative, but also work well within a team
- Have a valid driving license and access to your own vehicle for work purposes.

**What we offer in return**

We are proud to have been recognised and certified as a Great Place to Work, which speaks volumes on how much we value our staff members. In return for the hard work and dedication from our teams, we offer the following benefits:

- 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays (rising to 32 days at 5 years’ service) and the option to purchase or sell days
- Enhanced pension
- Refer a Friend payment
- Cycle to work & enhanced car schemes
- Vitality Wellbeing Programme including Employee Assistant Programme, GP and priority physiotherapy access and shopping discounts
- Fully funded flu vaccines
- Technology salary sacrifice scheme for home appliances, tablets, mobiles, TV’s, fitness trackers and more
- Various colleague networks including neurodiversity, LGBTQ+ and BAME
- Bi-monthly values awards, where winners receive gift vouchers and a tree planted in their honour
- Family friendly policies including enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption pay
- Volunteer programme
- Enhanced life assurance scheme, payment being three times your annual salary
