Are you the candidate we are looking for? At Shaftesbury Treetops we are recruiting for Enabling Support Workers.

We are looking for people with the passion, talent, skills and experience that all add up to a caring and community-minded workforce.

We believe that the people we support have the right to a full and flourishing life. They deserve the very best in delivery. Driven by our core values, Shaftesbury strives to be Open, Enabling, Inclusive and Courageous in all that we do.

About the role

As an Enabling Support Worker, it will be your role to provide support and encouragement, by taking direction from both the person supported and the person-centred support plan.

You will be required to maintain accurate records while at work, in line with the service requirements. You may also be required to administer personal care and medication.

There will be a requirement to cover sleep-in sessions. You will be paid an additional £60 per sleep-in.

Treetops is a high-dependency, residential care home providing 24-hour nursing and personal care for adults with disabilities, most of whom are younger.

People at Treetops have a wide range of individual choice, enabled by active support from staff. The service takes a person-centred, flexible approach. We know that everyone’s needs and aspirations are different, and that all sorts of things add up to a flourishing life.
