Support Worker – Young Adults
7 months ago
About the role
We have an exciting opportunity for you to join a fun, passionate and caring team to support our young adults aged 21-36 at St David’s House. Our residents have bespoke care packages with enrichment programmes that support independence, develop on daily living skills and support in accessing leisure, social and vocational opportunities in the community. So, retail therapy, a bite to eat down the pub, or a leisurely walk along the beach will definitely be on the list of things to do.
We provide exceptional care whilst encouraging our young people to follow their dreams
At St David’s House we find that the rigid daily structures and strict routine of other care homes don’t really work here, so our staff get to spend quality time with the young people they support.
You will be working as part of a close team of staff led by a Team Leader who will provide supervision and support so that you are able to help deliver high-quality education, care, health and therapy.
You will be supported every step of the way by providing an excellent, well designed induction programme along with mandatory training which will help you get off to the best possible start, ensuring that you fully understand your role within the organisation. We offer many opportunities for personal development, in fact, if you haven’t already obtained a Level 3 qualification in Health & Social Care or equivalent, we will fund and support you in the enrolment and training of this qualification which is a requirement of the role.
No experience needed
Previous experience in a similar role is not necessary. InFocus will support you every step of the way by providing an excellent, well designed induction programme along with mandatory training to help you get off to the best possible start, by ensuring that you fully understand your role and the part you play in the wider organisation. We offer many opportunities for personal development.
Working pattern
The working pattern for this position will be 37 hours per week, working on a three-week rolling rota which includes early shifts (07:00 – 17:00), late shifts (15:00 – 23:00) and occasional weekends (08:00 – 21:30 or 09:00 – 22:30).

All posts are conditional to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring check (DBS), satisfactory medical check and references.
