Whitley Bay NE, United Kingdom G & P Healthcare Ltd Full time £20,000 - £30,000 per year

G&P Healthcare is a complex home healthcare company rated outstanding by CQC.

We are looking for female support workers to assist with the care of a young woman who has suffered a traumatic brain injury and is currently residing in a nursing care home by the coast of Whitley Bay until her forever home is sought. Successful applicants will initially support this young woman in the care home but then continue to support her in her own home possibly in the Gosforth area.

The post will require the successful applicant to build a strong relationship with her, alongside supporting her rehabilitation journey and be prepared to do the things that she would enjoy such as outings, reading, listening to music etc.. The role would also require you to provide support with hands on personal care, engage in some therapeutic activities, and provide emotional support and companionship.

It is very important that the person delivering this support is patient and willing to get to know the young woman well, is someone who can work collaboratively with both the nursing home team and the private rehabilitation team. Excellent relationships with this woman's mum will also be essential which will help to gain insight to what her daughter would like to do, and the best way to support her. The young woman in question is currently unable to communicate so it is critical that the person appointed is has some experience of individuals with complex needs, can use their initiative and is able to demonstrate compassion and patience.

The ideal candidate will be reliable, open, honest, willing to learn, have good communication skills (both written and verbal), is a good listener and will possess a blend of practical skills and emotional intelligence with a sense of positivity, encouragement, empathy, and fun. We are looking for people who can demonstrate a strong professionalism and would relish the opportunity to make a very positive impact in the life of this young woman.
