Support Worker

Creative Support is a non-profit organisation which provides high quality person centred social care.

Stockton Home Care is for the provision of ‘Care at Home’ in support of people with a range of different needs, mental health and learning disabilities. This is a dynamic and growing community based service that offers a range of support packages to people living in their own homes across Stockton and Billingham.

Based upon security and safety for Staff and Service Users, the scheme is operated via a log in system.

Every package is individualised to our client’s needs. We aim to be flexible and responsive to our clients and therefore, you may visit a number of different people in one day or be based with one individual, your travel expenses will be paid within work time. Our service focuses on promoting independence, reducing isolation, and promoting mental and physical wellbeing.

You will provide person-centred care and support to clients to take part in all aspects of every day life and to enjoy a wide range of activities. You will have skills in positive communication and engagement and will be able to demonstrate unconditional positive regard for the people we support. You will have the maturity to be able to work within a positive behaviour support framework, to accept responsibility and to grow in confidence as a skilled practitioner. You must be able to follow agreed guidelines and to work positively within a consistent, mutually supportive team ethos.

In addition to opportunities for personal and career development we offer good conditions of service and a supportive, hands-on management culture.

We are looking to recruit people who are confident when lone working, who enjoy a challenging and rewarding job and who wish to develop through the training packages that we offer. Car drivers are preferable for this post.

Creative Support also offers a wide range of benefits such as:

• Guaranteed Hours
• QCF Diploma in Health and Social Care Level 2, 3 or 5
• Free life assurance
• Pension with company contribution
• A range of employee discounts.
