An amazing opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic band 3 support worker to join the amazing Children's Community Complex Care Service.

We are made up of 4 teams. The Long Term Ventilation Team provide 24 hour support for children who require ventilation, Continuing Care Teams, Home and School and Swanbourne Gardens which is a 4 bedded respite unit which provides overnight stays for children.

Robust training and regular competency reviews will be provided by our experienced staff nurses to ensure care is provided safely and in line with all policies and guidelines.

Our teams provide a 24/7 service so we would require you to be flexible in your shift pattern.

These children have complex care needs and are dependant on technology for their well being - full training and support to care for these children is given on starting the post and updated at regular intervals during the year.

To undertake a range of duties, which involve direct care, following care plans agreed with parents and named professional, working in the children's home, school or other environment where they spend time.

We hold a unique position in the Stockport community as the provider of healthcare and we are one of its largest employers.

An ideal applicant has significant experience in looking after children and preferably children with additional or special needs.

You must be willing and able to learn new skills and flexible with both your working days and hours.

You will be joining a growing team of Support Workers and will have every opportunity to learn and be supported in gaining experience and knowledge in caring for these children.

The Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment and promote safeguarding by implementing the Trust’s policies and procedures, acting promptly on concerns, communicating effectively and sharing information appropriately.
