Rotherham Borough Council are on a journey to transform its Adult Social care service to ensure all adults are supported to maximise their independence, be safe, healthy and well. Our One Rotherham Values ensure we are committed to be caring, Honest and Proud in everything we do.
Everyone should be able to choose who they spend time with and do what matters to them. Shared Lives is about helping people make a connection with their community and people within it.
Shared Lives offers people a fantastic, alternative and highly flexible form of accommodation and/or care or support using the Shared Lives Carer’s home as a resource. Shared Lives arrangements are provided by ordinary individuals, couples or families in the local community. People using the service, and their Shared Lives Carers enjoy shared activities and life experiences. Shared Lives enables a wide range of people who need support to live independent lives and have their health and wellbeing promoted.
The Shared Lives Scheme is part of Rotherham Council and is looking for a Support Officer to join our small, highly motivated and experienced team based in the Rotherham area. This would be 11.5 hours per week – one day of which would be Thursday.
You will be responsible for:
1. Inputting of carer payments
2. Administrative support for the service
3. Involvement in the publicity and promotion of Shared Lives Rotherham
