At Care in Mind our homes are always a hub of activity and energy where the young people can feel safe, and our staff enjoy coming to work. Your role will involve working with our young people to promote independence through support with education, household tasks and general life skills. You will also assist them with everyday life skills including shopping, building positive relationships, and going on holidays. We always encourage our young people and staff to bring their hobbies and knowledge into the home whether this be knitting, fitness, cooking or even singing so there is never a dull moment. Part of the role will be managing various levels of self-harm using a least restrictive approach, so you will require a high level of resilience and have a caring, compassionate nature. You will also update online care records and complete medication administration. In addition, you will be responsible for the general upkeep and tidiness of the home ensuring the young people live in a homely environment.

At our home in Neston, we support up to 5 Young People with a committed staff team. We have a lovely home with a spacious garden with room for relaxation, creativity and recreation area for sports. Situated on the Dee side of the Wirral Peninsula, midway between the cities of Chester and Liverpool and close to North Wales, it has many features of interest for visitors. This friendly historic market town, with weekly Friday market, has free parking and bus and train links. The surrounding villages are linked by the Wirral Country Park, the first of its kind in the country, which provides a focus for many local walks and cycle rides. The home is situated with close local transport links within walking distance. No two days are the same, you will be a part of a creative, fun and inclusive team who thrive on making a positive and meaningful difference to Young People’s lives on a daily basis.

Previous care experience is not essential and full training will be provided. You will receive ongoing support and mentoring from our friendly residential and clinical team.

The job is highly rewarding and a great start to developing your career working with young people or enhancing your previous experience of mental health with the opportunity for excellent career development.

Additional Information

Please note that training will be over 6 days at the Head Office in Stockport - Reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.
