Senior Support Worker Reigate
Job description
MyTime Reigate is a small, friendly, exciting day service who offer fun and enjoyable activities to adults with learning disabilities and complex needs such as epilepsy, ADHD, autism etc from the age of 18 upwards. We are passionate about people and pride ourselves on delivering person centred care through extensive therapeutic activity-based support. We are looking for enthusiastic motivated, senior support workers to join our team. Every day is different and the activities we offer enable people to have the benefit of a change of environment, build friendships and have a fun and enjoyable time whilst with us. We pride ourselves in being able to give people a positive experience by interacting with them on their own terms using their preferred methods of communication. The outreach service we provide is a valuable resource to people where supporting staff pick people up from their homes and take them out into the local community for breakfast, lunch, trips to the seaside as well as lots of other fun things to do. These sessions are always based around peoples choices and we actively encourage people to be involved in the planning of their care, supporting them to live more meaningful lives by building confidence and helping them to achieve life goals. Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is the leading provider of health and social care services for people of all ages with mental ill-health and learning disabilities in Surrey and North East Hampshire. We also provide social care services for people with a learning disability in Croydon and ASD and ADHD assessment services in Hampshire. We actively seek to engage people who use our services and our communities in improving the mental wellbeing of the local population. We work closely with other NHS and voluntary sector organisations who provide services and support people who use services and carers. Surrey is a beautiful county lying just 30 minutes away from Central London and from the South Coast. Our historic market towns and bustling districts are enveloped in wonderful countryside, and our excellent road and rail networks bring the rest of the country within easy reach. For international travel, both Gatwick and Heathrow airports are nearby. Please note that we reserve the right to close posts as soon as sufficient applications are received. Working from home contracts do not attract high cost area payments. We look forward to receiving your application!
