Our Services
Our Services in Stockport are home to the lots of amazing people we support! The people we support have a range of disabilities across our services/homes, which can range from complex to minor. Some of the people we support will require hands on support, and other support could be minimal. However, we always have the same goal, which is to provide the best person centred care possible, to make all of the people we support feel safe, supported and happy.
Within some of our services, manual handling may be a requirement, however all training will be provided in order to carry this out safely and professionally.
What our people we support like to do
Our brilliant people we support amongst our Stockport Services love nothing more than a good chat with friends, a board game or two, a trip to the cinema and a meal out at a fancy restaurant. We do have quite a few keen bakers too, who enjoy baking a nice treat!
Our Stockport Services are quite diverse with lots of different hobbies and activities, which our people we support get involved in. We want our successful Personal Assistant/Support Worker’s to continue supporting and encouraging the people we support to try new things, learn, and get involved in as much as possible.
Humour is essential for this role as the people we support will keep you on your toes and always try to amuse you. The role will be very active and driven by lots of activities.
The ideal candidate will be fully flexible so we can continue to support our people around the clock. Providing the best possible support for our people is a priority for us at Future Directions CIC, and we need to maintain that their needs are met.
