Keighley, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time

**Job Introduction**:
Would you like to be part of a small and highly specialised service which is committed to supporting me in my home and in the community?

Would you like to involve and support me to be as independent as possible?

Would you like to be well trained and well supported, and know that you are making a positive difference every time you go to work?

**About Me**

I am looking for individuals to support me here at Rix House Residential care home in Keighley and in my local community. I am a male in my 60’s with a diagnosis of Cerebella Ataxia, Brain Atrophy and Small Vessel disease all of which are different forms of brain conditions; I also have moderate learning and physical disabilities. I can also present with some complex behaviours of concern on a daily basis.

It is important to me, that I have a staff team that understands my various conditions and are patient and understanding towards me. I need a consistent approach with my support and need encouragement throughout the day to help me with me with my eating and drinking, personal hygiene, moving and handling and other activities that I may like to complete. It is also important to let me progress at my own pace and for staff to be able to recognise when I need space.

Communication is very important to me, and staff must get to know me well and understand my communication preferences, I sometimes like to have a laugh and a joke with you.

I enjoy lots of activities in and out of the community but currently due to the coronavirus I am unable to go out into the community as often as I like. I like to play my guitar, connect four, watching videos and listening to music. I like to be supported in doing some gardening when the weather is nice and play ball games when the weather is nice. I would like to be able to develop a good relationship with my support team so I can feel safe in the community when I eventually get to go out more frequently.

I have a very proactive, positive and close relationship with my sisters who are very involved with me.

**Role Responsibility**:
Rix House is a large Residential Care Home in Keighley, West Yorkshire and we have high expectations for our staff. You will receive all the necessary training to support me and this will take place locally in either Keighley or Bradford (Covid - 19 restrictions permitting).

- You will be required to work alongside specialists, family and other staff at Rix House in my multi-disciplinary team.

**You should be;**

- Be resilient, patient and understanding. It may take a while to be able to develop a strong bond with me.
- Be consistent in your support approach.
- Be able to use language effectively to enable me to widen my opportunities and understanding.
- A full driving licence would be desirable but not essential.

**You should have**
- The right attitude
- A good attendance record.
- The ability to work well as part of a team, and with other professionals involved in my support.

**Training and Development**
