x2 Support Workers

We are looking for 2 support workers to provide 2:1 care to support a friendly 18-year-old young man living in the Gilberdyke area. He is a warm and loving individual who is keen to build a positive and trusting relationship with the right person.

The role is for 2 workers, each worker to provide 6 hours per week during term time and 12 hours per week during the holidays. £15.00 per hour if employed / £19.00 per hour if self employed.

He enjoys going for gentle walks and spotting different animals, particularly in calm and quiet environments. He is a wheelchair user and has access to his own adapted vehicle, which can be used for trips out and about in the community.

The young man can sometimes become upset if he feels misunderstood or overwhelmed, particularly by loud or busy surroundings. He can be sensitive to noise, but once he feels comfortable and confident with someone, he responds really well to humour and gentle reassurance.

He has some speech and is able to communicate his wants and needs well. He has a great sense of fun and enjoys watching SpongeBob SquarePants, In the Night Garden and Mr Bean. One of his favourite outings is a visit to Costa for cake, although quiet venues suit him best as loud music can be distressing for him.

He requires full support with personal care, as he wears pads full time, so we are looking for someone who is confident, respectful and compassionate in this area. He also takes regular medication, which would need to be administered when out at certain times.

This role would suit someone who is caring, understanding and enjoys building meaningful one-to-one relationships.

• Support and encouragement with activities of interest, ensure his safety at all times during your working period and support and encouragement to try new activities to improve his confidence and abilities.
• Become a friend and engage in conversation.
• SEND experience.
