Overview

We are seeking motivated, dedicated, and enthusiastic Support Workers to join a specialist rehabilitation support team, supporting a young woman living with the long-term effects of an acquired brain injury. If you're passionate about making a meaningful difference in someone's life, this is an excellent opportunity to deliver high-quality, person-centred support within a rewarding and dynamic environment.

Our client lives in her own home and leads a full and active lifestyle. She enjoys spending time in the community, socialising with friends and family, shopping, eating out, attending appointments, and taking part in a range of leisure activities. She is able to direct her own care and enjoys being actively involved in decisions about her daily life, support, and future goals.

As part of her ongoing rehabilitation, she is supported by a multidisciplinary team of therapists and professionals. Support workers play an important role in helping her engage with therapeutic programmes and implement rehabilitation strategies within everyday activities, helping her maximise her independence, confidence, and quality of life. She also has a much-loved dog who is an important part of her daily life, so applicants must be comfortable around dogs and enjoy working in a dog-friendly environment.

• Assist with implementing therapy programmes and rehabilitation recommendations within daily routines and activities.
• Support attendance at medical, therapy, social, and recreational appointments.
• Maintain accurate records and contribute to effective communication within the support team.
• Drive the client's vehicle to enable access to community activities, appointments, and social opportunities.

What We Offer:

• Paid comprehensive induction and specialist training.
• Ongoing supervision and support from an experienced case management team.
• The chance to work within a specialist rehabilitation environment.
• A supportive team culture focused on achieving positive outcomes.
• The opportunity to make a genuine and lasting difference to someone's quality of life.

What We're Looking For:

• A compassionate, reliable, and proactive individual with a positive attitude.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• Patience, empathy, and the ability to remain calm under pressure.
• Flexibility and adaptability to meet the changing needs of the client.
• A commitment to high-quality, person-centred support.
• The ability to work independently and as part of a wider team.
• A willingness to undertake specialist training and professional development.
• A full UK driving licence (essential ).
