Dover, United Kingdom Blue Diamond Properties Ltd Full time

**Who Are Blue Diamond Properties?**

Blue Diamond are a family-owned organisation that has one primary goal: to help those in need to live as independently as possible.

We provide homes and support to a range of individuals in Dover and Folkestone; from young people who need support as they enter adulthood, to individuals with additional needs such as learning disabilities, mental health, or autism. We create person-centred environments and packages of care to provide the best opportunities for successful independent living.

We are going through an exciting period of change and would love it if you came along on the journey

**About the Role**

Being a Support Worker is one of the most rewarding roles you can get. Not only do you get to see people achieve their goals, you also get to be part of the reason they do it

At Blue Diamond we are all about encouraging and supporting independence, and understand that this can look different for everyone. Taking time to get to know the person you are supporting, and celebrating each and every milestone, is therefore essential.

Providing support will look different every day. You will work across a number of services to provide high quality care in accordance with the specific needs of the individual.

Just some of the things you might do as a Support Worker with Blue Diamond includes:

- Support the development of key life skills such as maintaining their homes, managing their finances, helping to prepare meals, using public transport, or taking them shopping.
- Provide emotional or behavioural support, and find ways to create positive and calming environments to help the individual to feel safe and cared for.
- Help to maintain healthy relationships with friends and families.
- Provide encouragement to do the things they enjoy such as sports, films, or music, or to go to new and exciting places such as the cinema, concerts, restaurants, or to the shops. We encourage you to introduce the people we support to new experiences and interests
- Support with educational programmes, or help to find work placements that link to the interests and skills of the person you support.

**About You**

Maybe you have previously worked in care and gained a love for the role within other similar organisations. Maybe you have helped to care for a relative or loved one, and wondered if you would suit a career in care. Or maybe it’s simply time to try something completely new

Being a good Support Worker is all about your values. You will have a genuine passion for helping people, and will be dedicated to finding ways to overcome obstacles in the pursuit of achieving amazing things. You will be a naturally caring person, always wanting to do your best for the people needing your help. That really is the most important thing - we’ll teach you the rest
