About The Role

Sessional
£12.60 per hour
Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?
Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!
Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.
Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.
The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me
The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.
In West Lothian we have three care homes - two in Livingston and one in Blackburn. We are looking for sessional staff to work across the three homes. There is a variety of shifts during the day and a wakened overnight support shift .
Blackburn
We support four ladies who require support in all aspects of care, including personal care. We work in a person centred way making sure that the individuals needs are key to all we do in providing support.
The ladies all have different interests. They enjoy parties, going out for days away, Abba music, chatting, spending time with family, shopping, baking cakes, and going to the hair dressers.
Livingston
We have five ladies at this care home, they are fairly independent but need support with some aspects of their daily living.
They enjoy various different activities such as a day out in the local community, local shopping centre, chatting, playing dominoes, baking and manicures.
Livingston
We have two men and two ladies who require support in all aspects of care, this includes personal care.
They enjoy a variety of activities such as days out, going for coffee, bingo, parties, and going out for a walk.
We ensure that the people are at the centre of all we do and they are involved in their care. We offer bespoke training to all our staff and provide a high standard of care and ensure we show dignity and respect to the people we support.
If you would like to join a very dedicated team who work to improve the quality of life for the people we support then we would like to hear from you.
That is why the people we support need you! Will you bring your best so that the people we support can live their best life?
