Rate: £12.60 per hour plus excellent staff benefits
Contract Type: Permanent
Position Type: Part Time
Hours: 20 hours per week
Dundee Day Support Services is looking to recruit a part-time Support Practitioner offering 20 hours per week.
Our ideal candidate will be a driver; however, this is not essential for the role.
The role does include early and late shifts, weekends, and public holidays, and team members are required to work a range of shifts over the course of the week; therefore, flexibility is required.
Dundee Day Support Services is registered under one branch within the Care Inspectorate covering more than one location - Support Service without Care at Home.
Dundee Support Services operates from 8 am until 10 pm over 7 days across two bases in Dundee. All the adults we support have a learning disability and/or physical disability and complex communication support needs.
Our enthusiastic team pride themselves in assisting the people they support to live full, active, and independent lifestyles despite any challenges they face. Our services offer excellent facilities and opportunities for these individuals to be involved in a range of activities. Our team also provides a safe, warm space to meet up and socialize with their peers, all while receiving specialist therapeutic support.
Your job will be to provide a person-centred care package to meet the needs of the people using the service, including supporting individuals with their personal care, moving and assisting routines, support with non-verbal communication and sensory techniques, and helping adults have fun and achieve goals in their lives.
Service Locations
1. The Hillview base offers a more therapeutic type of support using a base where there are activity spaces available to support on a 1:1 or 2:1 basis.
2. Community Links is a drop-in space offering a place to rest, eat, or be supported with personal care.
