Job Opening

Are you a dedicated and experienced Support Worker looking for a new and rewarding opportunity? We have an exciting vacancy in the Hertfordshire area that might be perfect for you!

Position: Support Worker

Type of Care Provider: Supported Living

Location: Hertfordshire, UK

Requirements:

  • Minimum of 5 years of UK experience as a Support Worker
  • A compassionate and dedicated professional.
  • Strong background in support work and social care
  • Confident working with challenging behaviour
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Right to work in the UK
  • NVQ level 3 is an added advantage

About the Role:

  • You will work on building a relationship with the individual(s) whilst you support them with living their lives.
  • Promoting independence and wellbeing in a person with learning disabilities is the biggest part of being a support worker.
  • The individual care plan will very much depend on the service user and their capabilities, but as a support worker, you will ensure they are safe whilst still getting the most satisfaction from their activities.
  • Some people undertake volunteer work during the days, others live almost independently by shopping, cooking and cleaning for themselves.
  • In your capacity as a support worker, you can offer your opinion and advice about any activity or issue, but ultimately the final decision of the person you are supporting must be respected.
  • For example, you could advise about healthy food choices when assisting an individual with making their shopping list, but it is their choice if they actually buy what’s on the list when they get to the supermarket.
  • You could be involved in assisting them with any type of physical activity such as helping them exercise, or with recreational activities such as shopping, playing games, or cooking and cleaning in their home.
  • Some service users may be able to live independently and will only need support when going out.
  • Others may need assistance in their own homes to undertake daily tasks, but whatever the needs of the individual, you will support them at a level that is appropriate for their needs.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary
  • Flexible working hours
