We owe it to the people we work with to grow and shape the future, because we believe in what we do.

We endeavour to create positive family relationships offering a good circle of support.

This is an opportunity to join our teams in Tameside who support 29 fantastic individuals in their own homes and out in the community. The people we support live with Autism, Learning Disabilities and Challenging Behaviours, and they require support and consistency with every aspect of their life.

We are looking for Driver Only Support Workers, this must be a valid UK Manual Driver’s License.

- We use a digital social care record system, to support daily recording, which will make your day-to-day tasks easier and allows you to spend more time with the People We Support_

**Role Responsibility**:
This is a hands-on job in which no two days are the same. Your duties will include:

- Promoting the independence of the people we support
- Supporting a full range of daily activities including cleaning and cooking, days out or going away on holiday
- Developing residents' life skills and personal interests
- Assisting with personal care needs and manual handling
- Supporting people with medication
- Supporting people through their highs and lows with sensitivity and empathy
- Ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements.

The level of care required will vary across our services. Some of the individuals we support are quite independent and just need assistance with daily activities; others require more assistance with personal care, medication, mobility and behaviours as well as these daily tasks.

Are you looking to make a difference to people's lives? Do you have a caring nature? Are you looking to make a difference to people's lives? Can you see yourself providing care to adults who need your support?

People with learning disabilities will sometimes have multiple conditions that can create complex needs. These conditions mean that the person we support may present with a combination of needs that affect:
- Mental health
- Ability to form and manage relationships
- Behaviours that challenge
- Physical appearance
- Physical health
- Sensory input
- Communication ability
- Cognitive ability

Whilst knowledge of learning disabilities and complex needs would be beneficial, it isn't essential. What is essential is that you are:

- Emotionally Intelligent
- Ability to respond to supported people in a sensitive, empowering way.
- Patient, calm and non-judgemental
- A great team player with lots of energy
- Able to demonstrate good and adaptable communication skills, and deal with behaviours of concern
- Someone who can follow routines and guidelines that meet the needs of the people we support
