Specialist Support Worker
3 days 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 available. We offer flexible opportunities from zero hour bank contracts or permanent contracts from 8 to 40 hours per week contracts, 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.
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. We don't think experience is necessary but the right attitude and the willingness to learn is. We will pay for a DBS check and are looking for a quick start, so what do you have to lose?

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