You’ll join our team to provide person-centred and strengths-based support to our customer (let's call them J) and help them reach their full potential. J has complex needs including a learning disability and autism.
J is a super intelligent, gentle and calm young man who needs our dedicated and positive team to help him reach his full potential.
J has some sensory processing difficulties, is hypersensitive to sound and wears ear defenders to help him manage his sensitivity.
When stressed or anxious, J can display behaviours that challenge us, and we need you to take the time to get to know him, and be caring, understanding, reassuring and positive. As part of our team, you'll help J overcome his barriers to help him lead a fulfilling and meaningful life and reach his true potential.

Typical day as our Support Worker:

1. Helping J overcome barriers and help him lead a fulfilling and meaningful life and reach their true potential.
2. Recognising their strengths and abilities and help them take the small steps at their pace, never losing sight of their dreams and aspirations!
3. Supporting J using Positive Behavioural Support model to promote independence and social inclusion through person centred support.
4. Monitoring our customers’ mental and physical health to identify any signs of deterioration and take positive risk management to their health and wellbeing.

You have:

• Experience in a Complex Care setting, with a Level 2 Diploma in Adult Health & Social Care or are prepared to work towards it.

• A patient and calm approach, able to adapt your style to J's needs, as well as to the specific occasion and circumstances, even when they challenge us.
• Experience of positive risk management, ensuring the safety and wellbeing of customers and colleagues.
• Ideally got Makaton, but that’s not a deal breaker!
