Do you have a caring nature? Are you looking to make a difference to people's lives? Do you want to work in an environment where no two days are the same? Are you flexible with your working hours? Can you see yourself providing care to adults who need yoursupport?
If you have answered a big YES to these questions we would love to hear from you.
At Turning Point, we support people with Learning Disabilities across England.
As a Support Worker, you will make a real difference to residents' lives as you improve their daily living skills. Passionate about people, you will enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and trainingyou need to progress with us.
**Where will I be working?**
Princes Ave is a service for three individuals with learning disabilities and non-verbal communication and personal care needs. The individuals moved in a few years ago, they all moved from a larger residential service that they all lived at.
The individuals are supported in their home to be involved in their day to day living, through engagement and encouragement by the support worker. They enjoy being together as they have known each other for a long period of time.
All three individuals like to be out and about enjoying a variety of activities and are supported 1:1 in the community and have a set number of 1:1 hour per week.
All the people at this service have individual needs and it is the role of the support worker to support the people in all areas of personal, domestic and social needs, both at home and in the community.
**Training and Development**
We offer training to all those who want to develop their skills and competencies not just in the care sector but in other areas too.
