Full-time and Part-time Opportunities Available for Female Support Workers
Are you a compassionate, reliable, and motivated individual looking for a truly rewarding career? We are looking for caring Support Workers to join our dedicated team, providing high-quality, person-centred support to two women in their own home.
This is an opportunity to join a small, supportive team where continuity of care, respect, and the building of meaningful relationships are at the heart of everything we do.
About the Role
The clients are adult twins with cerebral palsy who each have their own personality, interests, routines, and support needs. They are supported 24 hours a day to live safely, comfortably, and with as much independence as possible in their own home environment.
As a Support Worker, you will play an important role in supporting them to lead fulfilling lives while promoting dignity, choice, and independence. Every day is different, and you'll be encouraged to get to know each client as an individual, providing care that reflects their preferences and goals.
Working under the guidance of the Case Manager/Care Coordinator, you'll collaborate with family members, therapists, and colleagues to ensure consistently high standards of care.

- Committed to delivering exceptional person-centred care.
- Excellent communicators with a positive and flexible approach.
- Able to work effectively both independently and as part of a close-knit team.
- Respectful of each person's individuality, preferences, and independence.
