Support Worker

Would you like a rewarding role in which you can support a client in their own home?

Come and join one of the UK's largest providers of complex care.

Within the Care in the Home division, we support clients with complex care to live independently in their own homes.

We'd like you to join us as a Support Worker to support our male client who lives in Sheffield.

Meet the client:

I would like to have a Support Worker I can connect with, who encourages me and keeps me on track. Help me to be as independent as possible and continuing with rehabilitation and physiotherapy sessions. I find having a busy schedule and planned diary keeps me focused- I may require prompting to ensure that I maintain appointments.

I enjoy watching films with my support worker and I spend my spare time volunteering in a local caf.

What You'll Be Doing

We're supporting a lovely gentleman who lives at home and is looking for someone kind, patient, and encouraging to be part of his day-to-day life.

He's had an acquired brain injury, and while he's keen to stay as independent as possible, he appreciates a helping hand with things like:

• Light household tasks and shopping

• Personal care and medication reminders

• A bit of support to keep things on track and build confidence in his daily routine

You'll be there to encourage, reassure, and help him feel comfortable and in control of his day.

This is a flexible daytime role, and you'll get full training so you'll feel fully supported every step of the way.

As he enjoys getting out and about, we're looking for someone who:

• Has a full UK driving licence

• Drives their own car

That way, you can help him enjoy trips into the community and stay active in the things he loves.

When you'll be working:

• We are looking for a regular team to work permanently with our client
• Days available
• flexible hours between between 10am and 6pm (3-5hours per day)
• Monday - Friday available
• Full time or part time available
  

What you'll have:

• Kind and caring nature
• Flexibility & reliability continuity of care is imperative for our clients
• Good communication skills
• Valid drivers licence, own vehicle and business insurance
• Prior experience with acquired brain injury support would be beneficial

What to look forward to:

• 12.25 up to 13.50 per hour depending in experience and qualifications
• Accrued holiday pay
• A Nest Personal Pension account
• Full specialist training
• We recognise outstanding Active Behaviours via the Active Awards programme
• Refer a Friend Scheme and earn yourself up to 1500 by recommending someone you know
• and, of course, the support and guidance of our qualified clinical and business leadership teams so that you can really develop your career with Active Care Group

We also want to ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable facilities to participate in job applications or interviews to perform essential job functions. To support this, we are a Disability confident employer.
