Waking Nights Support Worker

3 weeks ago


Wallasey, United Kingdom MacIntyre Full time

**Are you looking for night work? Could you support adults with learning disabilities when they are wakeful during the night? No experience necessary.**

We are seeking a Waking Night Support Worker (Maternity Cover) to join our friendly team of Support Workers at a small and homely residential service in Wallasey, where we support 5 adults aged from 36 to 74 who like to be out and about as much as possible.

**Intrigued to know a bit more about a few of these wonder individuals?**

Susan* does voluntary work in a nursery two afternoons a week, she does this independently however she prefers to be supported to visit her mum who has Dementia.

David* enjoys travelling on public transport, so we support him to navigate trains, buses and his particular favourite the ferry

Simon* likes to bake cakes, make pizza and smoothies.

**What would you be doing?**
- As you would have guessed, the people we support are very active during the day and may want to chat about their activities and what they've been up to before they go to bed. That's when your presence is needed.
- You would be the person who is available when they are wakeful at night,
- You need to check at regular intervals to ensure they are comfortable and getting a good night's sleep ready for the next day.
- You will need to provide support with personal care or medication.

This is an important role to make sure people feel safe at all times and not vulnerable during the night so this is more about providing an emotional reassurance.

**This is a temporary part-time position that is a 9 hour shift (approx from 10pm -7am) for 2 days a week.**
- _Names changed for privacy_

**About you**

Experience isn’t always necessary. If you have the right attitude, good customer service skills, share our values and are willing to learn, you’re likely to be a great fit. We are looking for people who celebrate differences, and we strive to make all our staff feel included, valued and respected.

But it doesn't stop there - throughout your career with us you will have access to our own dedicated in house Learning and Development team, Quality Specialists and HR Teams. These teams, along with your Manager, will provide you with opportunities to learn and develop professionally as well as enabling and supporting you to achieve professional qualifications and career progression opportunities - all free of charge.
