Carlisle, Cumbria, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time
Job Introduction

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 your support?

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 training you need to progress with us.

Where will I be working?

You will be working in one of our supported living services in the Carlisle area, compromising of 12 single and double occupancy flats. The clients you will be supporting are varied, which means you may be supporting adults from 18 to 75 years of age.

The service provides a relaxed and comfortable home for service users with a variety of health needs and Learning Disabilities. The role will involve high amounts of personal care to individuals due to many individuals having limited mobility.

As part of this role you will also be supporting our clients with their social and emotional wellbeing, supporting with medication and finances.

We use a digital social care record system, to support daily recording, which will make your day-to-day tasks easier and allows you to spend more time with the People We Support.

Shift Patterns

This is a 24-hour service, therefore flexibility is essential. You will be working a range of shifts including nights and some weekends.

Role Responsibility

What will I be doing?

This is a hands-on job in which no two days are the same. Your duties will include:

  • promoting the independence of people we support
  • supporting a full range of daily activities including cleaning and cooking, days out or going away on holiday
  • arranging activities in the home and in the local community
  • developing residents'' life skills and personal interests
  • helping residents stay safe and healthy
  • assisting with personal care needs
  • manual handling
  • supporting people with medication
  • ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements.
The Ideal Candidate

What skills and qualities do I need to have?

Whilst knowledge of learning disabilities and complex needs would be beneficial, it isn''t essential. What is essential is that you are:

  • passionate, caring and enthusiastic
  • flexible, patient and non-judgemental
  • a great team player with lots of energy
  • able to demonstrate good communication skills
  • able to complete the physical aspects of the role such as manual handling where needed

Drivers are preferred due to needs of people we are supporting.
