Support Worker - Supported Living

About the Role

As a Support Worker you will be supporting individuals with PMLD (Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities) and Mild Learning disabilities. The role may include manual handling, medication administration, personal care, food preparation, household tasks, supporting individuals to keep in contact with family and friends, accessing the community and attending appointments. We provide support for daily living skills and help support with socialisation.

We recognise each person as an individual and provide a unique service which is person centred and tailored to their needs. The role is to promote the individual's independence, choice, dignity and respect by delivering the best standards of support. We offer people with PMLD a safe and secure home where they can live independently with the support they need.

Joining the Radis family means that you will share our belief in the quality of care/support that we provide. We call these beliefs our 'Values'. Our shared values are at the heart of everything we do to ensure that our role always makes a positive impact to people's lives.
