Main Responsibility
As a support worker, your role is to support people to do the things that matter most to them. The role is focused on supporting people to live their lives as independently as they can, keeping them safe, helping them to make choices, and ensuring that they lead full and rich lives in their community.
You will provide care and support to people either in their own homes or within one of our supported living or residential services. The support you give to each person will depend very much on their individual needs and is focussed on doing ‘with people’ not ‘for people’.
Your role is to support people to be as independent as they can. As well as day to day support, this will include supporting people with tasks around their home such as cooking and cleaning, going out, taking part in activities and attending college/work or going on holiday.
