We are currently seeking female support workers* to join our organisation. In this role, you will be supporting a young lady with a mental health condition, helping her maintain independence and live as she chooses.
About the Role:
This position includes long day shifts, sleep-ins, and waking nights, providing consistent 2:1 support. The focus of the role is to deliver structured, person-centred support in line with the individual’s needs and preferences.
Shift Details:
You will work a mix of long day shifts, sleep-ins, and waking nights on a rota basis. Long days are typically around 12 hours and cover daytime and evening support, including appointments, activities, and daily routines. Sleep-ins involve staying overnight with a set period for rest, while remaining available to respond if required. Waking nights require you to remain awake throughout the shift, providing active support, monitoring wellbeing, and maintaining a calm environment.
Shifts are planned in advance and worked as part of a small, consistent team to ensure continuity of care. All support is delivered on a 2:1 basis, meaning you will always be working alongside another member of staff.
