Elgin, United Kingdom Inspire - Partnership Through Life Full time

Inspire has been supporting adults with learning disabilities in Elgin since 1992 and today we operate two housing support services within the town.

We are currently seeking the right new team members to help the local people we support continue to get the most out of life and play a full and active role within their community.

**Could This Be The Job For You?**

We currently have vacancies for Support Workers at one of our established services in Elgin, which we have operated since 1996, and where we enable 9 people - four men and five women, ranging in age from 28 to 75 - to live at home with appropriate levels of support.

The role of a Support Worker is extremely varied and in Elgin the people we support have a broad range of interests including going to the football, bowling, listening to music and singing - no two days at work are truly ever the same

The people currently supported by Inspire in Elgin also have a mixture of communication levels and physical capabilities, which adds further to the variety of the role.

Although our work can be challenging it is also immensely rewarding as Support Workers play a vital role in developing and maintaining the important life skills and encouraging the participation and integration required for the people we support to flourish and live the life that they want.

As a Support Worker you will participate in household tasks, including cleaning, cooking, ironing and washing while encouraging the people we support to join in. You will also accompany people on outings to the shops, or to attend social events, and help with the administration of medication and maintaining people’s dignity through the provision of quality personal care, depending on individual needs.

**What’s In It For You?**

We also appreciate that now, perhaps more than ever before, different people need different things from their work pattern, so there is lots of flexibility with available shifts - including evenings, weekends, public holidays, sleepovers etc.

There are plenty of other benefits that come with working for Inspire in Elgin as well, apart from having the opportunity for real personal development and growth and getting to know and spending lots of time with the great people we support in the town.

Permanent Inspire Support Workers receive up to £10.61 an hour - with a sleepover rate of £84; there is a competitive sick pay entitlement, generous life assurance policy, company pension contribution, the option to buy and sell annual leave and a £200 Refer a Friend scheme.

If you have a caring nature, a calm and patient demeanour, and are respectful, compassionate, nurturing and inclusive, then we would love you to join our team here in Elgin, and help us continue supporting local adults with learning disabilities to live fulfilled and happy lives.

**About Us**
- Work with us to support people with learning disabilities and additional support needs._ _**Empower life choices**_._

At Inspire, we believe that the people we support should be at the heart of all that we do. This influences the way that we approach our work, both with individuals and how we operate as an organisation.

As an early pioneer of person-centred planning in the North East of Scotland, we recognise that we need to take time to understand each person as a unique individual. We work with the person and their family, friends and others who support them, to develop a plan. This approach recognises that each person has their own gifts, talents, routines, interests, needs and wishes - and most importantly - empowers the people we support to make life choices based on what is important to them.
