Overview
The Support Worker is a frontline role working directly with our adult service-users (members) who have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Our team of Support Workers enable our members to participate in a comprehensive programme of meaningful activities and opportunities that promote a set of agreed outcomes, including independence. The nature of the work is varied, and includes facilitating personal/intimate care, supporting members with eating/drinking, promoting positive behaviour, and offering other support to our members on an individual (1:1) and group basis, as appropriate. Activities are facilitated at our Adults’ Centre on Bowthorpe Rd (Norwich), and in the community (e.g. Swimming).
Role and Responsibilities
· Support members to participate as independently as possible in their chosen activities, so that attending Nansa is a positive and enhancing experience.
· Communicate with members (and their families/carers), Nansa staff, and other agencies/professionals to ensure all individuals’ aspirations and needs are identified, supported, and met.
· Support members with their care needs, ensuring personal preferences are taken into account, in line with dignity and respect.
· Support members who require additional assistance with eating or drinking, including direct help, food preparation and clearing up.
· Work closely with the wider team to ensure everyone is kept safe at all times, and any potential issues are dealt with (or reported) immediately.
