Job description

Support Worker – Tonbridge

Location: Tonbridge, KentSalary: £14 – £16 per hourShift pattern: Days

Looking for a role where getting to know someone is just as important as completing the tasks on their care plan? Superior Healthcare is recruiting a Support Worker in Tonbridge, paying £14 – £16, to provide respectful, person-centred support.

As a Support Worker, you’ll help someone live with greater choice, independence and confidence, providing consistent support shaped around their individual needs and everyday life.

Job description

As a Support Worker with Superior Healthcare, you’ll spend meaningful time with the person you support and help them with the things that matter in their daily life.

Our client needs someone with experience in complex care – tracheotomy experience, PEG experience and ventilation experience would all be advantageous. She is looking for someone who can help her access the community, so a full UK driving licence is preferred. Most importantly, you must be a bubbly Support Worker with a good sense of humour and be passionate about what you do.

You’ll follow an individual care plan and work closely with colleagues, families and professionals where appropriate. You’ll receive an induction and any role-specific training needed, with ongoing guidance available from Superior Healthcare’s wider care and clinical teams.

For someone who wants to develop, the role can also provide a pathway into more specialist support and complex care.

Shifts

Day shifts available: Monday – Sunday

Any specialist training required for the individual support package will be provided where appropriate.
