About the role:
We are looking for a bubbly, enthusiastic female support worker to join our team in Chatham.
As a Support Worker, you’ll deliver excellent care, celebrate achievements, encourage fun and creativity and engage directly with the wider community. This is more than just a job – you will be helping the people we support gain independence and live healthy, happy and fulfilling lives.
At this service you will be supporting a lady in her late 60s, who is nonverbal so good communications skills are a must! This person loves to go out on day trips. This can vary from the zoo, wildlife parks, cinema, bowling, local walks or out for ice cream so someone with similar interests would be a bonus!
She also has her car so it would be an advantage if the successful applicant has a full UK driving licence.
Hours:
Full time- 39 hours.
This is a lone working position; staff are required to work 24-hour sleep-in shifts 365 days a year so weekends and bank holidays are a must.
Location:
Lordswood, Chatham.
About you:
Could you support someone to live more independently and do the things they enjoy? We are looking for hard-working caring people to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a genuine passion about working within this sector, looking to make a difference to the people we support and will be looking for a challenging but rewarding role.
This role is ideal for people committed to making a positive difference in individual’s lives, including experienced support workers, graduates and those seeking a stimulating career path into social care.
