Full job description

Who Are We?

The Percy Hedley Foundation is one of the largest regional charities supporting people with a range of learning and physical needs. We take a person centred, flexible approach to the care and support we provide. We have five sites providing specialist education, adult day services, residential care and independent supported living to our service users. Our sites are based in Forest Hall, Killingworth, Jesmond, Newcastle City Centre and North Shields.

We work towards excellence every day and our team members are committed to delivering the very best outcomes for the people we support. Our dynamic and flexible service is tailored to the specific needs of the individual, making it easier to live, learn and be part of a world adapting to change.

The Role

Please note we do not offer sponsorship, applicants must have the right to work in the UK.

**please note due to the current demands of the service this requirement is for female staff only**

We are looking to appoint Support Workers to join the team at Ferndene Supported Living.

Ferndene comprises 10 self-contained bungalows all within one building with a shared walkway, gardens and car parking. Each bungalow is occupied by one individual. There is a small area within the building for staff to use as a base. The people who live within Ferndene require assistance throughout the day to enable them to be as independent as they can be and lead lives that are meaningful to them. The support provided may be assistance with medication administration, meal preparation, moving and handling, personal care support, shopping, and/or planning and supporting individuals to attend planned events or appointments.

Percy Hedley provides the care and support to the people living at Ferndene, each person has a different requirement of support both in terms of the amount of hours and the tasks that are involved. We are looking for people who are enthusiastic, willing to learn, and are keen to support people to achieve their goals. In Ferndene you will work as a team of support workers to provide support to all individuals. You must be a great team player, who is flexible, organised and has the skills to work with a multi-disciplinary team to ensure the people we support receive the highest level of care. Being able to adapt and respond to evolving situations with a person-centred approach is essential for an independent living scheme.

As this is a 24/7 service, part and full time hours are available but you must be open to working both days and nights.

For more information, please contact our recruitment team on 0191 2381301 (We politely request no calls from recruitment agencies in relation to this post)

Why Work for Us

At Percy Hedley we encourage career development and progression. We run a robust training programme and also have development opportunities across the wider Foundation.

We also offer the following benefits to staff:

28 days holiday (includes bank holiday entitlement) (pro-rata for part-time staff)
Loyalty awards starting at 2 years’ service
Wellbeing support (including occupational health, physio services and counselling services)
Contributory Pension Scheme
Induction and ongoing training
Employee Assistance Programme
Access to a rewards scheme designed to save money on shopping
Access to Blue Light Card
Cycle to Work Scheme
Access to discounted Nexus Travel Corporate Pop Card (payments spread over 12 months and deducted from salary each month)

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore applicants should be aware that the post will only be offered to successful candidates subject to an Enhanced DBS and barring checks as well as other employment clearances such as referencing in line with our regulator’s legislation requirements.

Please note that this role is classed as regulated activity as it involves working directly with children and/or vulnerable adults. All shortlisted candidates will be asked to complete a criminal records self-declaration form prior to interview, and all candidates will be subject to an online check prior to interview. The amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975 (2013, 2020 & 2023) provide that certain spent convictions and cautions are 'protected' and are not subject to disclosure to employers, and cannot be taken into account. Guidance and criteria on the filtering of these cautions and convictions can be found on the Ministry of Justice website.

Please note it is an offence to apply for this role if the applicant is barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to children and the Percy Hedley Foundation has the right to respond appropriately.

As a disability confident employer who is registered and accredited by the scheme, we would encourage all applications but please reach out if you require any guidance or support in your application.

This recruitment is ongoing therefore the vacancy will close when a suitable number of applicants have been appointed.
