***COME MEET THE TEAM and find out more about the roles - Saturday 25 June 2022 from 10 am - 2 pm Darlington Market Square***

We are currently looking for Support Workers to join us and help us to realise our ambitions to support the residents of Darlington to be as independent and healthy as possible.

Our Reablement Team has undergone a significant transformation within the last few years, with an emphasis on maximising independence, delivering personalised outcomes. Our priorities are focussed on supporting reducing isolation, delaying where possible the onset of support needs, supporting carers, as well as ensuring people are safe from harm. Due to the success of the team, we are looking to expand our service with the opportunity for several permanent Support Workers, various hours available.

Our main priority is to find people with the right attitude and behaviours to join the team and we will provide you with training for all the required work tasks, as well as opportunity to shadow existing colleagues as part of your induction.

Above all we are looking for people who:
• Want to be the best they can in the role and are committed to quality
• Can provide excellent care and support to our residents
• Treat others with dignity and respect
• Work well as part of a team

You can expect to receive regular supervision and appraisal, outstanding training and development opportunities, an excellent total reward package including competitive salary, 31 days annual leave (pro rata for part time working) and a wide range of employee benefits promoting wellbeing.

We are a short-term service which provides you with the opportunity to work with new individuals who access our service for up to 6 weeks. The duties are varied and may include supporting with personal care, washing, dressing, showering, accessing the toileting, meal planning and preparation and medication. The role is extremely rewarding as you can make a difference to individuals using the service by helping them regain their independence.

There are a range of shift patterns available including some weekend and Bank Holiday work. The service operates Monday – Sunday 7.30 am – 1.30 pm and 4 pm – 10 pm.

For detailed information on this role, please refer to the Job Description and Personal Specification. For more information about the team and an informal discussion about the roles, please contact Kimberley Gibson, Team Leader on 07384537102.
