Team Leader Support Worker (Exeter)
Are you a passionate and enthusiastic rehabilitation support worker?
Do you want to be a part of an incredibly rewarding and person-centred approach to care?
Are you looking to develop or refine your leadership skills?
If so, we are looking to grow Team Steps, where you will be caring for clients in their own homes and developing your skills as a rehabilitation support worker through our client specific training programmes - both online and in a bespoke classroom-based setting. When working independently with one of our clients, you will never be without assistance from us - thanks to our office team, who run a 24/7 on-call service.
Our client is a gentleman, who previously served in the military, with an acquired brain injury as a result of an accident. He lives in his own home and loves to get out in the community with his rehabilitation support workers, and try new activities - such as triking, attending veteran coffee mornings and going to the theatre.
Alongside this, our client is a pleasure to support and easy to build a rapport with - especially given his quick-witted humour and active mindset. Most days will involve going out on day trips into Exeter, from shopping, to grabbing a coffee - every day is different and full of potential.
This role is based in Exeter, on a full-time or part-time basis.
We are offering shifts from 09:00-17:00, this is including weekend work.
Alongside this, you will be required to do additional hours surrounding your role as a Team Leader.
Responsibilities will include
· Arranging and supporting to attend appointments
· Leading a team and setting the standard
· General upkeep of the property
· Administering medication
· Accessing the community
. Assisting with the client's programme of rehabilitation
. Maintaining efficient communication
. Attend meetings
Requirements for the position
