Job description

Are you looking for an empowering and rewarding career where you can help people to lead their most independent lives?

The Lifeways Group in South Tyneside are currently looking to expand their fantastic team of Support Workers in our local residential services.

McAnany Avenue is a residential service ready to welcome new people and support them in leading an independent life.

The four-bedroom detached house has level access. All bedrooms are on the ground floor and have an ensuite with a toilet and a sink. There is a kitchen, an open-plan dining and living room, a laundry room, a conservatory, and two wet room-style bathrooms with a bath and shower. There is also an accessible garden with a patio for people to spend time outdoors when the weather is nice.

You’ll either be an enthusiastic person with plenty of patience looking for a career change to bring new life and experiences into our service or you’ll be an experienced Support Worker with a background in complex emotional or behavioural settings looking for a change and wanting to be part of a team that will make a difference to two young people with complex needs to give them new opportunities in their life both at home and in the community.

You’ll get a fully paid induction with ongoing training and support from a dedicated Manager plus the opportunity to undertake a qualification in health and social care funded by Lifeways Group plus so much more when you join.

We work within the principles of person-centred support, enabling development and inclusion in their everyday lives within their home and wider community. Each service user has their own self-contained room within the service buildings and your work will be varied as you’ll be supporting with all sorts of activities including swimming, shopping, going for a coffee, going to the cinema, visiting museums and clubs.

You’ll be supporting the service user with general household chores such as cooking, laundry, vacuuming and dusting and in some cases personal care (assisting with bathing, toileting and feeding).
