Full Job Description

H is a friendly and intelligent 21 year old living in the Denton area of Tameside, who would like some support to reduce her isolation, by having someone she can build a strong working relationship with to help her regain confidence in a community setting. The support required is flexible, but is mainly tailored around:

  • Going to places she enjoys to improve her confidence in being out in a community setting again.
  • Prompting with her medication and supporting her to attend appointments.
  • Supporting her at home with daily living skills, things such as helping her to plan, shop for and make healthier meals. Also finances and diary planning.
  • Using public transport. Arrange to meet her in the community and for her to get the bus independently rather than meeting at her home.
  • If you are an encouraging and outgoing Support Worker who could make a positive difference to H and have experience of working with people with autism, then please get in touch. The role:
  • 6 hours per week, ideally with some of this at weekends. It would suit someone looking for flexible work.
  • £12 per hour, reviewed each April.
  • Funding can be requested for suitable training courses.
  • CAR DRIVER ESSENTIAL
