About Community Integrated Care
Community Integrated Care is one of the UK’s largest health and social care charities. We transform lives by delivering high-quality, person‑centred support that fosters independence and empowerment. Our charity was founded in 1988 and we were one of the pioneers of the ‘Care in the Community’ agenda, enabling people to move out of long‑stay institutions and live more fulfilling lives. Since then we’ve remained leaders in social care, providing bespoke support to thousands across the UK.
Today, we support more than 2,600 people and employ 6,600 caring and committed colleagues across England and Scotland. We have a proud history of breaking boundaries and are always looking for new ways to make a positive difference through bold ideas, innovative projects and impactful partnerships.
Working closely with the Service Leader and Support Worker Team, you will be responsible for supporting adults with learning disabilities, autism and mental health concerns to live their daily lives. Each person we support is unique, so the support you provide will be person‑centred and will focus on achieving the best lives possible with them.
In this role you will support people in their own flats, helping them live independently. The support may involve medication administration, cooking and home maintenance, positive behaviour support, managing finances, and encouraging participation in activities such as playing pool, work placements, arts and crafts, video games, gardening and community outings. Some of the individuals we support are non‑verbal and use Makaton to communicate.
QualificationsWe are looking for individuals who are compassionate, eager to learn and who have a passion to care. Experience as a support worker, care assistant, veteran, or those with lived experience is welcome but not mandatory. We emphasise values and are welcoming people from all walks of life, whether seasoned support workers, Care Assistants, Veterans, those with lived experience, or even total newbies.
