As a Residential Support Worker, you’ll provide emotional support to our young people and help with day-to-day activities such as getting washed, dressed and out to school. if you are working a shift during the weekend, you will barely be on-site at the home because the fun is elsewhere think theme parks, bowling alleys, cinemas and zoos. You’ll have so much fun that you’ll almost forget you’re at work.
With the good times will come challenging times, with our homes accommodating young people with autism, learning difficulties, social, emotional and mental health needs. Although our Residential Support Workers tell us that the strong relationships and lasting memories that you create together will more than make up for these challenges. For them, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing a young person overcome difficulties and progress.
West View provides care for up to 5 young people with emotional and behavioural difficulties. We have worked with children and young people with Learning Disabilities, Attachment Disorder, Asperger's Syndrome and other associated autistic spectrum disorders as well as young people experiencing difficulties with mental health, troubled family relationships or conduct. The home is situated in a rural area on the outskirts of Southampton City, enabling young people to have great links to amazing places such as the buzzing city centre, the New Forest, the Isle of Wight and London.
All candidates must have a full UK driving licence.
