Robert, a caring gentleman with a lovely smile, was born in 1986. He really enjoys participating in leisure activities including snooker and darts, and also enjoys listening to his favourite bands (heavy metal) and attending music concerts, including cover bands, within his local area. He also really enjoys walking in the countryside and has a goal to climb Snowdon. He is looking for a support worker to help him enjoy all these activities on a regular basis.
Robert has short term memory affecting his ability to live independently and requires help and support with the domestic tasks of daily living; planning and organising his daily routine as well as being able to enjoy his hobbies and interests. He has a very supportive family member and a small number of close friends who are very important to him.
This job would suit someone who is calm yet very proactive and able to bring lots of enthusiasm to the role. Someone who enjoys the same hobbies and music would be ideal. You will be a lone worker but will have support and supervision provided by a Team Leader and/or Case Manager.
