Barrhead
Various part time hours available
Are you interested in working for an award-winning social care charity?
Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants, but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone with a learning disability to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!
Each person we support has different support needs, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling, or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.
Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing, and aspirations of the people we support are met.
The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse. Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.
Let us introduce you to Paul:
My name is Paul and I live in Barrhead with my family and know this area well having lived here all my life. I am supported 5 days a week (Mon-Fri) between 8.30-4.30 to do different social activities. I attend Barrhead Resource Centre some days of the week along with my worker to join in with different group activities. I really enjoy being active so will usually participate in activities like swimming, bowling, pool, basketball, etc., so it’s important you can keep up with my pace. I like people with similar interests and a good sense of humour. I also require support with my diabetes condition, but training will be provided for this. I like going on regular short breaks such as Craig Tara, so I will also need you to be flexible to support me with this. If you think you are suited to working with me then please apply.
That is why Paul needs you! Will you bring your best so that Paul can live his best life?
If you think you share the same interests and have the commitment, dedication, and above all, desire to support Paul to get the most out of life; then please apply now! Enable needs you and your values to help us create an equal society for every person who has a learning disability. You don't need experience in care to start your social care career with Enable. We recruit people based on their values and transferable skills. Wherever your journey has taken you up until now, join us, and together we will forge a new path in what could potentially be the most rewarding role you have ever had!
