Description du poste

Personal Assistant for Stephen in Toryglen

Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?

Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!

Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.

Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.

The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me

The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.

Let us introduce you to Stephen:

Stephen is an active, sociable young man, who values his independence and enjoys living in his own flat. Stephen thrives when he has a strong, positive relationship with the team around and who will get to know him well, build trust and enjoy spending time with him doing things he enjoys doing as well as supporting him to maintain his tenancy. Stephen leads a busy life, and he would like staff who share or are happy to take part in his hobbies and routines: Celtic Football club, WWE, Harry Potter. He also enjoys Dj'ing, Horse Riding, Football and attending or volunteering at adult social clubs

That is why Stephen needs you! Will you bring your best so that Stephen can live his best life?
