About the Role
You will be supporting four gentlemen aged from their late 40s to 60 s, both in their home and in community settings. Two of them require full personal care, while the other two need verbal prompts, encouragement and reassurance. One gentleman uses a wheelchair and will require safe manual handling using hoists and mobility equipment where appropriate.
The role involves lone working at times, during both night shifts and individual daytime support, while still being part of a supportive and collaborative team. The gentlemen enjoy a wide range of interests, such as eating out, gardening, bird watching, visiting familiar places, watching aeroplanes and jets, going to the cinema, go‑karting, walks, ice creams and exploring anything that gets them out in their local town. You will support with meal preparation and cooking, helping each person build confidence and independence.
Experience isn’t essential; what matters most are your values. If you are patient, kind, reliable and passionate about helping people live full and meaningful lives, we will provide all the training you need. You will feel comfortable providing personal care, working alone at times and following detailed support plans.
