Drivers Required
Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?
Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!
Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.
Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.
The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me
The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.
Let us introduce you to Neil:
Neil is full of fun and energy. He loves being outdoors working at a farm looking after sheep and alpaca's - his passion. He also volunteers at a garden centre. He loves swimming, going to the gym and playing on his ipad. He also loves going out for food with friends. Neil lives in his own home and receives support 7 days a week including at night. Sadly, it’s not always possible for Neil to enjoy what many people would consider these ‘simple pleasures’ without proper, dedicated support. That is why Neil needs you! Will you bring your best so that Neil can live his best life?
