We are currently looking to recruit a team of Support Workers to provide support for a 28-year-old female who lives in her own home. This young lady is diagnosed with Moderate learning difficulties, Autism, A.D.H.D. And Hypotonia.
The purpose of your role will be to enable her to live her in her own home and continue to have independence.
This young lady requires a staff team of 8 people, male/female. 2 staff at all times covering 12-hour shifts including nights. These shifts can be adjusted if needed depending on the applicant.
She requires carers who have a positive, outgoing personality with a good sense of humour. You should be fit and have good general health as she likes walking, swimming and trampolining. Her favourite thing to do is go shopping but this can make her over stimulated so this happens once or twice a week.
She can be complex and have challenging behaviour so we are looking for empathetic carers who understand her needs.
