Wishaw, United Kingdom SOL Full time

**Peripatetic Support Worker - Full and Part Time**

£10.90 per hour

If you enjoy the variety of working in different teams with different people, then this is the role you are looking for.

Support for Ordinary Living (SOL) provides support to individuals within their own homes through their own dedicated team of support workers. We are looking to add peripatetic support workers to these teams to provide cover when there are holidays, training, and periods of sickness.

This means that the people we support will have a familiar face and continuity of support when their regular team member is off.

As a peripatetic support worker, you will be allocated a set number of teams to be part of and assist in. You will have a set rota that you will work on a two weekly basis meaning you may work in a different team each day or may be with the one team for a week.

Some of your working days may be scheduled as on-call days meaning that you will be on standby in case you need to be deployed to a service and will count as a paid working day whether called on or not.

The two-week rolling rota you will work is
- Week 1 - Monday, Tuesday, Saturday, Sunday workdays, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday off

Week 2 - Wednesday, Thursday and Friday workdays, Monday, Tuesday, Saturday, Sunday off

Hours (and a variation of the above rota) will depend on whether you are fulltime or parttime. Sleepovers may also be a requirement depending on the teams you are allocated to.

Experience would be preferred but is not essential as you will be given training and shadowing in each team.

We believe life is worth living when the things that matter most are present. Love, Family, Friendship, Work, Freedom to direct the course of our lives, the opportunity to learn and contribute. We believe that is what ordinary living is all about.

We are looking for individuals who share our values:
- **Go above and beyond** - do their best and strive to achieve the best for the person they support, are committed and passionate to ensuring that the person they support has the same opportunities in life that we all have.

**Challenge the status quo** - to be the voice and advocate for the person they support, are resilient, driven and open to new challenges and ways of thinking

**Do the right thing** - are honest and have integrity, ensure that the person they work for is kept safe and their colleagues work environment is good place to be.

**Find the joy in the ordinary** - are able to appreciate the small things and able to value and see small goals as achievements

**Look at the world from a different perspective** - seeing the world through someone else’s eyes, listen to what’s not being said and learning new ways to communicate with people

**Make a difference** - be everything from a gym buddy to singing along with someone’s favourite song, musician to film buff. Encourage the person you support to do the things they love and encourage them to try new activities.
