Rochdale, United Kingdom Alternative Futures Group Full time

Being a Support Worker at AFG is a hugely rewarding role and could be your first step on a long and happy career in Health & Social Care.

**So, what does a Support Worker do?**

We have a vision to create _a world where people control their lives. _Here at AFG, we pride ourselves on helping the people we support to design, develop and ‘own’ the support they receive by planning this with them; we support people to make informed choices and increase their own independence; and we support people to maintain their own health, wellbeing and living environment. These principles are really important to us.

Our Support Workers work in a variety of settings including community-based services (often supporting people in their own homes) to our Treatment & Recovery Centres.

One thing that is common across all of our services is a focus on personalised support and tailoring our services to the needs and aspirations of the people we support with a diverse range of care needs (including Learning Disabilities, Physical Disabilities, Mental Health Concerns, Complex Care, Substance Misuse issues to name a few).

**We value the people that work with us**

At AFG we recognise the contribution and value that our staff make. We would not be able to provide the life changing support that we do without people like you In return for your contribution we will support you throughout your career and we provide a wide range of employee benefits, career development (including opportunities to undertake vocational qualifications) and lifestyle support services to ensure that you too feel supported, fulfilled and valued from day one of your employment with us.

**About you**

There are a few things that we look for in all of our support workers; we would need you to
- be a good communicator (verbally and in writing)
- be patient, confident and enthusiastic about caring for others
- be able to use your own initiative
- be able to work as part of a team
- have flexibility to work a varied shift pattern to provide 24-hour support
- share our AFG values

We don’t ask for any other relevant training or a previous career in care as full training will be provided - you just need a willingness to learn and develop.

Your pay_ - _our Support Workers receive a rate of £11.00 per hour for all worked hours. Once you are successful for a role with us, full details of your pay will be included in your written offer.

As a ‘values based’ employer, the people that work for us genuinely care about the people they support, and we are seeking likeminded people to join our AFG family. If you are passionate about caring for others and have a real desire to make a positive difference to the lives of the people we support then we would love to hear from you.

**More about this vacancy...**
We asked the Team Leader to tell us more about this role and the amazing person that we need to work here.
- Where is this vacancy based?_
This vacancy is based in Norden, Rochdale.
- Who do you support?_
There are two ladies at Shelfield Lane with completely different needs.

One is non verbal and needs support in most areas of her life including personal care. This lady struggles with her mobility and staff support her using a wheelchair for any long distances. She is non verbal and be can be seen as challenging as she can be extremely noisy but she also has a very loving nature.

The other lady we are supporting to develop her independence. She needs a lot of reassurance and can display challenging behaviour if she doesn't want to do something. She is an intelligent lady with a good sense of humour who enjoys trying new activities with staff support.

Both ladies appreciate a good sense of humour and a bubbly positive personality.
- Where do they live?_
Small 3 bedroom bungalow in a community setting. Large garden to the rear.
- What would a typical shift be like?_
The shifts at Shelfield are generally 9.00/22.00 sleep in until 10.00am the following day 10/17 day shift.

Staff are usually lone working during the day though One lady does have 2-1 staff 3 times a week.

It is then lone working from 5pm until 9.00am.

The day will commence with personal care/showering with a pad change for one of the ladies. They will then have breakfast and they will have 1-1 activities until approx 3-4pm.

The activities can be anything from the sea life centre, shopping, museums, pictures etc.

One lady will need pad changes and both need medication throughout the day.

After the day out both Ladies will relax whilst staff update paperwork, organise appointments and make tea.

Both of our ladies have special dietary needs so staff will sit with them whilst they eat their tea.

The evening is generally relaxing watching TV though one lady enjoys a good chat.
- What activities do the people that we support at this property like to do?_
One lady enjoys swimming, going to charity shops, zumba and cinema but is open to try anything that suits her needs.

She needs a lot of motiv
