Specialist Support Worker
5 months ago
We are building a team to provide support for a lady living in her own home in Dobwalls. She loves her animals, being active outdoors or chilling in the hot tub at the end of the day. On quiet days she likes arts and crafts and loves Disney movies.
We work days and nights with sleep in shifts also required. We offer flexible opportunities from zero hour bank contracts or permanent contracts from 12 to 36 hour per week, with the aim of balancing the needs of our lady with yours. We support this person seven days a week with shifts allocated on a rota'd basis.
We are looking to recruit some final members of our team to work both days, waking and sleeping nights. In order to build a relationship with our young lady we have found that working one or two days shifts a month is really valuable, so are looking for a little flexibility across the role to meet her needs in this way.
She has a learning disability and Autism with a pervasive drive for autonomy, so her team need to be skilled communicators who help her manage her epilepsy and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome on both the busy days and the quieter ones.
Sometimes she will experience episodes of distress and her team need to help her feel and stay safe with a physical intervention. Whilst we have found that experience of work in care and support of folk with a range of interacting needs has been valuable, we recognise a character match and the willingness to learn is crucial too. We will pay for a DBS check and are looking for a quick start, so what do you have to lose?
A driving licence and a willingness to drive a motability vehicle are essential.
We are also recruiting to services further West in the county, so if this sounds interesting, but the commute is too long, get in touch and our teams in Truro, Redruth and Helston will happily talk about additional opportunities we could offer.

- Training and supervision in Trauma informed care, Autism and Positive Behaviour Support
