**We are looking for positive, compassionate and caring Female Support Workers to join our team in Hayle, Cornwall where we support people with learning disabilities. **We have a range of full time and part-time opportunities on a permanent basis.**About our Service
The work will involve offering daily support to 3 ladies with a learning disability which can include support with shopping, budgeting, decision making, support with general day to day activities and inclusion in the community.
- Each day is different, you may be supporting with meal planning, arts and crafts, days out, visiting family or shopping trips. All 3 ladies have very different personalities, likes and dislikes so no day will be the same.
This role will suit an outgoing person who is committed to supporting and encouraging people to achieve their best. You should be motivated to look for opportunities and ways of working with people which can give new experiences and introduce them to new and exciting things.
- As a Support Worker, flexibility is key for both yourself and for the service, you may be required to work a variety of different shifts throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, sleep ins and weekends (You will receive an enhanced flat rate payment of £60.00 for any sleep in shifts carried out. The payment for sleep ins is non-contractual). The best thing about flexibility is it is a two-way street, while we may require that you work a variety of shifts, we also understand that you’ll have your own commitments and we will try to factor this into our rotas.

What does a Support Worker do?

As a Support Worker you will be expected to provide an outstanding level of support that will help to ensure the people we support live a more comfortable, dignified, liberated and happy life. You will have excellent communication skills and be a naturally caring and patient personality. Typical responsibilities may include:

- Supporting people to live independently - budget management, paying bills, housework, organising appointments and cooking delicious healthy meals.
- Excellent communication skills and Relationship building - supporting the people we support to understand the world around them and promoting positive relationships.
