About the Role:
The role entails contact supervision or providing short respite services. For the supervision aspect of the role, this involves supervising contact between children and their extended family network where this supervision is deemed essential by the courts to protect the child from suffering ongoing substantial harm or risks. You will provide formal written evidential reports to guardians, social workers, managers, and the courts to inform decision making on the individual's child's future care arrangements. To ensure that children are protected during supervised contact sessions, you will intervene where required and facilitate contacts which safeguard the child from inappropriate behaviour.
In terms of respite, this will involve taking the child out into the community or providing respite within the home environment to allow carers a break from day-to-day care. This will include supporting the young person in an activity and ensuring their basic needs are being met.
