Who you’ll be supporting & more about the role:
Is it important for you to have a satisfying job where you feel supported?
If this sounds like you, maybe an Advanced Support Worker role with an award-winning charity is the change you’ve been looking for!
We are looking for an Advanced Support Worker to support a young man who has recently moved into his own home in Camelon. This young man has complex needs, including a learning disability and Autism spectrum disorder and receives 2:1 support each day.
Having just moved into his home, this young man's team will help him to build a fantastic life, by providing support to source new activities in his community. He requires support to keep himself safe as he doesn't understand dangerous situations.
• Medication administration and Epilepsy management
• Cooking and shopping
• Assisting with personal care
• Maintaining his home and managing finances
- ‘This role is an hourly paid role at £14.30 hourly rate. The salary advertising is an example of the annualised salary for someone working 37.5 hours a week. If you work part time, this will differ’
Your values:
Respect, patience and understanding are key as the young man you'll be supporting is adjusting to a new home environment. It's important to take the time to understand him in order to support him to live a fantastic life as independently as possible.
Prior experience supporting people with complex needs is essential, as this is a new team and we're looking for our Advanced Support Workers to share their knowledge and experience within the team.
Applicants with a SVQ 3 in Health and Social Care would be highly desirable, but it's not essential.
