Job Introduction

As a Support Worker, you will make a real difference to residents’ lives as you improve their daily living skills. Passionate about people, you will enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress with us.
Where will I be working?

The culture is crucial and staff are its heart and model its values. Our homes manage risk, regulation and paperwork in an adult way and focus on relationships and people.
Our homes are a community of people with strong social networks. The homes are lived in with the individuals having control over their own space.
The homes are engaged with the community, and have good relationships with the local health community – GPs, hospital, nurses, consultants. Our homes find solutions with the person at the centre and work in partnership with key individuals.
Relatives are confident in the values of our care homes they are able to challenge when needed and to thank.
Families understand that staff are people too and have their own relationships with the people they support.
Our homes are part of a “whole” system with commissioners and regulators trusting and engaging in a supportive and appreciative way.
