Position Overview & Specifications
This role is based in Alton, Hants, GU34. Our client is unable to offer sponsorship for this role.
A very happy, smiley but somewhat mischievous client is looking for an animal-loving Support Worker who would love to join him in creating arts and crafts pieces and who doesn’t mind losing at board games!
- Our client has cerebral palsy and epilepsy and uses a wheelchair full-time; he, therefore, requires round-the-clock support with all aspects of his daily living including personal care, feeding, and medication.
- He is currently non-verbal but working with his therapists and team, along with using eye gaze and a smart box to communicate and gain confidence with verbal language.
- As a typical young boy, he loves being out and about and visiting places where he can enjoy interactive play so the Support Worker would have to be able to drive his large, automatic vehicle. When at home our client loves spending time in the garden, doing arts and crafts, and playing games.
- Full training in all aspects of our client’s care will be given along with supervision and support from the private therapy team.
- You will support our client by following his care plan and implementing his therapy program.
- You will provide support with feeding, hoisting, personal care, and administration of medication.
- You will be flexible, reliable, and patient and have a positive and empathetic attitude to working with a child with additional needs and supporting him whilst helping to develop his skills.
- You will have experience working with adults or children with Cerebral Palsy or similar and you will be a driver able to drive our client’s large, automatic vehicle.
- You will hold an NVQ 2 in Health & Social Care/Care Certificate (or equivalent).
- £14 per hour.
Please do apply even if you can only work some of these hours as we will still consider your application.
- Additional hours will be available to cover staff annual leave or sickness and night shifts.
- You will have a full weekend off at least once a month.
- Week 1 – Sunday 08:00 to 20:00 (12 hours).
- Week 2 – Sunday 08:00 to 20:00 (12 hours).
- Week 3 – Saturday 08:00 to 20:00 (12 hours).
