Home, a place where you belong
Are you a self-starter motivated by supporting isolated and vulnerable people in our community to improve their lives? As our Enhanced Support Lead Support Worker, you’ll be providing short-term interventions to link customers to other services in the community. You’ll take referrals from the Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) for people identified as at risk of self-neglect by GPs or Paramedics or Fire Service when they’re called to an incident in their homes. You’ll be supporting those who have fallen through the gaps in services, such as customers with support needs around hoarding, poor living conditions, or difficulty maintaining their wellbeing, so you’ll make a big difference every day helping isolated customers in the community. Amazing we know!
Typical day as a Enhanced Support Coordinator
• You’ll be dynamic, managing your own diary and caseload focusing on outcomes for our customers
• You’ll work in the community liaising with and networking with other agencies to support customers to achieve their outcomes
• You’ll be working in the community across North Hampshire to meet with customers in their own homes or meeting with other agencies
• You’ll be allocated a laptop, phone and lone working device so you can manage working in the community
• You’re passionate and motivated to help vulnerable people make positive and lasting changes to their lives
