Are you an experienced Care Assistant or Support Worker?

Is it important for you to have a satisfying job where you feel supported?

If this sounds like you, maybe a Support Worker role with an award-winning charity is the change you’ve been looking for!

At our Dollar service in Clackmannanshire, we support 4 fun and outgoing individuals to live in their own flats in a shared building.  The people we support have faced a lot of challenges in the past because of their learning disabilities, mental health and previous trauma and are looking for friendly, caring and supportive people to help them build confidence and improve their independent living skills so they get the most from life!

The people we support enjoy a wide range of different activities, like socialising, going to the movies, shopping, making Tiktoks, watching and playing football, cinema, walking, playing games and having barbecues in their shared garden.  They’re looking for positive and patient people who can support them to try new activities and help them achieve their goals, which include going to college and finding a job. A driver is essential for this role due to the location and restricted public transport there.

Our staff team are very experienced and also support with:

• Medication administration
• Cooking
• Encouraging the people we support to clean and maintain their homes and manage their finances
• Social situations and responding to situations in a trauma-informed way

We provide support 24 hours a day, so we ask for some flexibility to work a variety of shifts including day shifts, back shifts, waking nights and sleepovers, with some weekend work included.

The people we support like to be supported by people who respect them and their homes, but who also like to have fun!

We like people who are reliable and honest and are able to remain calm under pressure, so they can provide effective support and build fantastic relationships.
