Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?
Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!
Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.
Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.
The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me
The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.
Let us introduce you to Ronald & Mary:
Ronald loves going out in his local community including going for walks, attending social groups and picking up a bag of chips at his favourite chip shop. A typical day could be going to the shops to ensure Ronald has all the essentials he needs, and supporting to complete household tasks. Ronald receives support 7 days a week usually between the hours of 7am and 9pm. Sadly, it’s not always possible for Ronald to enjoy what many people would consider these ‘simple pleasures’ without proper, dedicated support.
Mary enjoys spending her time shopping. She especially likes going for a look round the charity shops. After shopping she will be often found at the local café enjoying a cup of coffee. Mary is looking for a person to help her maintain independence by going with her to the shops and support her to maintain household tasks. Mary is a determined individual and this shows through her passion to help her community by volunteering in her local charity shop. Mary requires a dedicated person to support her to maintain her routines. Mary receives support 7 days a week between the hours of 8am & 4pm.
That is why Ronald & Mary needs you! Will you bring your best so that Ronald and Mary can live their best life?
