Are you someone who genuinely cares about people and wants to make a difference?
Maybe you’ve worked in Health & Social Care before. Or maybe you haven’t. You might have experience supporting someone in your family, working in another caring profession, volunteering, raising a family, working in a team, or simply have the patience, compassion and life skills to make a difference.
Whatever your background, if you’re motivated by helping others live happy, fulfilling and independent lives, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re looking for new Complex Care Practitioners to join our fantastic #TeamNewDeer, working 15 or 20 hours per week. We also have relief opportunities available if you’re looking for something more flexible.
Our team and the individuals you'll support
You’ll join a friendly, welcoming and dedicated team supporting eight individuals with Autism.
You’ll support people in their own homes and communities, helping them to:
-
Build and maintain their independence
-
Manage their own homes and everyday routines
-
Look after their health and wellbeing
-
Connect with their local community
-
Enjoy hobbies and interests that matter to them
-
Try new experiences and discover new opportunities
-
Achieve the goals and outcomes that are important to them
What we need you to bring
Experience in Health & Social Care would be great, but it’s not essential. What matters to us is who you are, how you treat people and what you bring to the team.
Perhaps you have caring responsibilities outside of work. Maybe you've supported a family member or friend. You could have experience working with people in another setting, or you may simply be someone who is patient, reliable, calm and compassionate.
Life skills count too
We’ll give you the training, guidance and support you need to develop into a confident Complex Care Practitioner.
You’ll need to be comfortable working independently and, with the right training and support, be willing to develop your confidence in supporting people whose behaviour may sometimes be challenging.
We want people who are passionate about the people we support having the same opportunities, choices and experiences as everyone else.
Whether you're helping someone enjoy their favourite hobby, supporting them to get out into the community, encouraging greater independence at home or simply being there when they need you - what you do can make a real difference.
