I’m a 37-year-old lady who sustained a brain injury following an accident whilst serving in the RAF and am in the process of relocating to a property of my own in Porthcawl. I use a wheelchair and have some physical difficulties, I can communicate verbally, providing you give me the time I need to express myself, have a good sense of humour and enjoy the company of others.

As a very determined lady, I wish to live as independently as possible with the support of a Team Leader, a team of Rehab Support Workers and my parents, who live nearby. I would like to go out into the community and access events such as the cinema and shopping but more importantly I would like to have support with tasks such as cooking, managing my house etc, and to support me to explore sports/rehab/activities in the area.

I receive input from an occupational therapist, speech and language therapist and a physiotherapist and am working on my strength to assist my mobility further.
I would like my Team Leader/Rehab Support Workers to be warm, patient and reliable, to encourage and support me to access all opportunities and help me to maximise my quality of life. You will play a key part in helping to develop my day-to-day activities and I am looking for likeminded people to aid my rehabilitation further.

As a Team Leader you will have the abilities to lead my support team by being organised at managing paperwork, ensuring staff rotas are up to date and supervising and appraising the care team. You will be professional when communicating with my therapists and family members and advocate on my behalf. You will be expected to contribute to plans and risk assessments necessary for safe care to be delivered, ensuring these are up to date and reviewed on time. You will be an integral part of the rehab team, also working 12 hours a week as a Rehab Support Worker. There may be occasions where you need to work at short notice to cover sickness absence or annual leave of other workers. As the Team Leader you’ll have effective communication skills and be able to converse with me, my family and case manager when required.
This role is subject to an Enhanced level DBS check and full induction and training will be provided.

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION - To join me as a Team Leader/Rehab Support Worker you will need to: -
• Be able to drive and have use of a car.
• Drive the family vehicle.
• Have experience of supporting a person with a brain injury.
• Enjoy working as part of a team.

Also, Top Reasons to Apply: -
• Above the industry average for pay
• Mileage rate – 45p per mile
• Work directly for our client and not an agency (unlike most agency work you
will spend quality time with your client which can make a real difference)
• Great opportunity for professional development
• Be part of an expert multi-disciplinary team
• Bespoke client induction and training
• Ongoing support and supervision from the dedicated Case Manager
