Leamington Spa, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time

**Job Introduction**:
Do you have a caring nature? Are you looking to make a difference to people's lives? Are you looking for a fresh challenge, where full training is provided? Are you flexible with your working hours? Can you see yourself providing care to adults who need your support?

If you have answered a big YES to these questions we would love to hear from you.

At Turning Point, we support people with Learning Disabilities across England.

As a Support Worker, you will make a real difference to residents' lives as you improve their daily living skills. Passionate about people, you will enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress with us.

**Where will I be working?**

**_Willes Road_** is a well-established service with good relationships - it’s like a big, hectic family with a lively group dynamic. All the people we look after are fully mobile and active and you will work in a busy and lively environment. We accommodate for up to 4 individuals aged between 30 to 50 years old, who have autism with mild to profound Learning Disabilities with some challenging behaviours. Staff are trained in positive support strategies and person centred approaches. All those we support require one to one care which is quite intensive, offering positive and rewarding relationships with a focus on the individual.

How do I get there? This service is easily accessible by both public transport and by car. If you were to travel by train from Coventry rail station this would 1 hour, by bus 1 hour 20 minutes and by car this would take 23 minutes depending on traffic. Please note this is coming from Coventry and is just a guideline.

No experience is necessary, staff with or without experience will be given full training to be able to do the role to the best of their ability.

**Training and Development**

We offer training to all those who want to develop their skills and competencies not just in the care sector but in other areas too.
- Level 2 and 3 Lead Adult Care Worker
- Level 3 Operational Team Leader

Please note training will be offered after your probation period ends which is 6 months. Once you begin your training with us you will have your own coach who will support you through your programme.

**Shift Patterns**

This is a 24-hour service, therefore flexibility is essential. You will be working a range of shifts from 7:00/8:00 am to 2:00/3:00 pm and from 2:00/3:00 pm to 9:00/10:00 pm, sleep-ins or waking nights and some weekends.

Please note that working hours may vary from service to service.

**(Average potential earnings are £23,949 based on 37 hours).**
- *Potential average earnings are a culmination of colleagues working additional shifts and where applicable sleep ins**_
- ** sleep ins are not required in all services_
- **not all colleagues will work overtime and therefore potential earnings will differ_

**Role Responsibility**:
**What will I be doing?**

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

- promoting the independence of people we support
- supporting a full range of daily activities including cleaning and cooking, days out or going away on holiday
- arranging activities in the home and in the local community
- developing residents' life skills and personal interests
- helping residents stay safe and healthy
- assisting with personal care needs
- manual handling
- supporting people with medication
- ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements.

**What skills and qualities do I need to have?**

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

- passionate, caring and enthusiastic
- flexible, patient and non-judgemental
- a great team player with lots of energy
- able to demonstrate good communication skills
- able to complete the physical aspects of the role such as manual handling where needed
- transferable experience of helping people to manage anxiety

**About us**:
**Why Turning Point?**

As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.

Across the varied regions, sectors and settings we operate within, our organisation is held together by a shared vision - and our people are connected by the same values.
