Ensuring a calm, safe, and supportive environment that promotes positive engagement and progress.
Work collaboratively with colleagues and the management team to deliver high quality care.
Remain alert and monitor CCTV throughout the shift.
Complete all routine night duties and any tasks handed over by the day shift or service manager.
Key worker responsibilities: complete inductions, support plans, reviews, risk assessments, and welfare checks; update records, monitor access, manage unauthorized visitors, follow missing person protocols, and escalate issues to on call when needed.
Health & Safety: carry out property checks, report maintenance issues, keep communal areas clean and safe, and complete required reports (AINMs and others).
