Full Job Description

I am a female adult living in my parent's home, but soon to be moving into my own home, in area IP6. I have a diagnosis of generalised dystonia and autism. Which requires me needing support with all daily living tasks. I need support with personal care and all transfers. I have full capacity and like to be supported to make my own choices and decisions. I spend most of the day in my wheelchair but hoping to get a recliner chair to suit my posture so I can be more comfortable throughout the day when not partaking in activities.,

  • Opportunity to join our Cash Back Health Plan, after successful completion of the probation period. Free training and development for all roles.
  • Access to wellbeing and support tools.
  • 'Star of the Month' rewards and 'Long Service Awards'.
  • And so much more! SAFER RECRUITMENT All roles will be subject to a successful disclosure at an appropriate level from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and are exempt from the provision of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. As part of our Safer Recruitment practices, any offer of employment will be conditional pending receipt of two satisfactory references (see our Safer Recruitment Policy for more information). SAFEGUARDING COMMITMENT Solo Support Services recognises that everyone has the right to be safe from abuse and neglect. We will actively promote the safety, health and well-being of everyone in our care by fostering an honest, open, caring and supportive climate within the organisation. We believe that safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and promote accessibility and inclusivity for all. Solo Support Services is committed to the recruitment and promotion of all on the basis of ability and suitability for the role irrespective of disability, race, gender, health, social class, sexual preference, marital status, nationality, religion, employment status or age. Our organisation is committed to treating your application fairly on these grounds. Please be advised that decisions regarding applications and employment are made in conjunction with our client. Therefore, applications will be shared with them for consideration. We will anonymise all information provided to us to ensure your data is kept confidential prior to an offer of interview. You can view our privacy policy on our website: www.solosupportservices.co.uk/aboutus

    I like to have a purpose each day and need my personal assistants to be supportive and understanding of my needs. I have a keen interest in the game Boccia, and this is very important to me as I attend several games and tournaments throughout each year., The ideal candidate will live locally to me, be flexible, patient, have a calm presence and a genuine caring nature. You will need to be enthusiastic and inspiring to bring a sense of energy into my life. You must also be able to demonstrate a high level of professionalism and integrity, promoting my independence and respecting my family and my new home. Candidates must be female and have previous experience of supporting clients with mobility requirements, and having knowledge and understanding of generalised dystonia and autism would be beneficial. However full training will be given to the successful candidate.

    A Rota will be planned and agreed in advance. Anyone looking to apply needs to consider that my hours of support may change from time to time so you will need to be flexible to be able to accommodate this, and to cover Annual leave or sickness on a pro Rota basis. All training is paid for including the hours to complete the necessary training. An in-depth training package will be delivered to my team to support you to understand how to care for me and to meet my needs. BENEFITS In return for your dedication, you'll receive a competitive rate of pay in addition to:
  • 5.6 weeks holiday per year (pro-rata for part-time positions).
  • Company pension scheme after 3 months' service, subject to the scheme rules.
