Service: Health and Social Care Partnership
Closing Date: Monday 4th November 2024
Our Learning Disability Support Services provide essential person centred support for individuals by helping people with learning disabilities/physical disabilities and complex conditions to access to and continue education and development, live in their own tenancies, paid employment opportunities, life skills development and meaningful activities, achieve their desired outcomes and become more involved in their communities. We also work with adults with autism (ASD) and behavioural supports (ADHD), often transitioning from school. Autism is not a learning disability but in our rural areas, there are few supports that adults can be signposted to. Many of the people we support also have autism, so individuals are supported by our registered location teams.
Our HSCP in house registered support locations are SCSWIS (Care Inspectorate) registered providers.
We have multi-trained teams who often support individuals who are unable to be supported by anyone else due to complex issues. However, we often identify people, who may be able to be signposted to our other community support networks or alternatives. We currently require bank/casual Support Workers for WOODLANDS day support, Woodlands Road, Campbeltown.
You should be a team player, empathetic, passionate about support and have transferrable skills. Experience would be great, but a firm value base to support our people to reach their potential is more important.
