Overview

We require a team of skilled and experienced Support Workers for a new supported living scheme in Higher Broughton Salford. The service has been commissioned by Salford City Council to provide a bespoke new building for people with learning disabilities, physical disabilities and health care needs. The role will involve building warm and trusting relationships with individual service users, enabling them through person centred support to lead fulfilling lives in their new home and local community. You will provide direct care and support including working closely with health professionals to ensure people’s health care needs are met. You will support people with their individual communication needs ensuring their needs, wants and preferences are understood and met. You will contribute to the delivery of support which meets people’s diverse cultural needs. This is a rewarding role and offers people with experience of care an opportunity to learn new skills and undertake additional training in such areas as complex health care needs, positive behavioural support communication needs and intensive interactions. We are seeking people who have experience of working with people with learning disabilities or who have transferrable skills from other care settings. You will be part of a new team and have the opportunity to help develop this new service. You will also work closely with families and other professionals and be part of our wider network of high quality services across Salford.
