Home First and Reablement Support Worker

Blackburn with Darwen, United Kingdom Blackburn with Darwen Council Full time

Job description

** Terms and Conditions: Part time, 12 Months Fixed Term, 30 hours per week**
**Department: Adult Services**
**Provisional Interview date: To be confirmed**

**Are you a kind/ caring person looking to develop a career in Adult Social Care?**

We are recruiting enthusiastic, caring, strength based; person centred Home First/Reablement/Crisis Response Support Workers.

We work collaboratively, 24/7. It is crucial the team has the right people, with the right skills, behaviours, attributes and core values to support adults and their carers to achieve independence as far as possible.

Previous experience is desirable however not essential, as full training will be provided, including Q.C.Fs in Health and Social Care and a range of other accredited courses to further your career opportunities.

We know that a Home First/Reablement approach discharging people from hospital in a timely manner, back to their own home encourages a quicker recovery and the person’s wellbeing and long-term needs are much more positive. By establishing daily living skills (bathing, dressing, medication administration, continence care, and nutrition) and promoting community connections through a time limited, goal orientated programme, people remain in their own for longer and prevent hospital/residential care admission.

Additionally, you will have the opportunity to be involved in supporting the Borough’s domiciliary care services and Nursing/residential homes in times of need.

You will be part of a multi-disciplinary team including Social Care Professionals, Therapists, Voluntary and Community Services to provide short-term prevention and rapid response intervention to enable the adults we support to live to their maximum level of independence and achieve their goals.

We describe our team as “enthusiastic, supportive, friendly, forward thinking and creative” we know this will really resonate with you. A warm welcome awaits you in our team.

Your ongoing development is important to us. We can offer you a comprehensive induction programme and provide you with regular supervision that is person focused and reflective to meet your well-being.

** If you would like to have a chat about any of these roles please contact Hilary Hampton, Registered Reablement Manager 01254 585932 or Holly Newlands, Home First Team Manager on 01254 585150.**
