Do you have a passion for helping vulnerable people enjoy as much fulfilment as they can and feel included in their community? If compassion, care, and inclusiveness are important parts of who you are, our opportunities to work away from the routine in a demanding, challenging but emotionally rewarding role could be for you.
Our Turning Point Scotland Services in Angus are looking for people like you to help provide individualised support to adults with a wide range of needs, either on an individual 1:1 basis or alongside others and as part of a team.
Turning Point Scotland’s Angus service is a support service that provides support to individuals with complex needs including learning disabilities and autism. We provide support to people in their own homes living in the community and support them with everyday opportunities that promote independence and choice.
We strive to enable people to access everyday life experiences including access to education, employment/volunteering, and social activities. We will also provide support with developing relationships and maintaining a home. We work in partnership with health teams, social work teams, community justice teams, police, and advocacy.
The support we provide is always person-centred; we do this by involving people who know the person well, including family and friends, other health and social work professionals, advocacy services, and our own staff members.
We believe having the right values of respect, compassion, inclusion, and integrity is all you need to join our team! We would offer you full support in completing your application.
As a Lead Practitioner, you will work with individuals who have a wide range of support needs, providing them with practical and emotional support and encouraging them to achieve their own personal outcomes in all aspects of their daily lives, e.g., keeping safe, meaningful activities, community involvement, physical health, relationships, emotional health, and wellbeing.
