Crynodeb
Are you an experienced health and social care worker who's on the look out for a new part-time or full-time role? We've got just the opportunity for you!
We're now on the look out for two new colleagues to join our amazing #TeamBaxterView as Complex Care Practitioners on a permanent basis between 16 and 39 hours per week. We have relief opportunities too, if you're looking for something a bit more flexible.
Our team and the individuals you'll support
You'll become part of a friendly, dedicated welcoming team who provide support to eight individuals who have varying complex care needs to live in their own flats.
In addition to working directly with individuals, you'll also work in partnership with a multi-disciplinary team and the individual's families and guardians to ensure each individual has a robust and outcome focused support plan.
You'll support individuals to manage their own homes, increase and maintain their independence and encourage and support them with their social, health and well-being needs.
The people we support all have different hobbies and interests too, so we’ll need you to bring creativity and enthusiasm into supporting them to access leisure activities, engage in meaningful activities and take part in hobbies and interests that are important to them, both within their home and out in their local communities.
About You
Due to the needs of the individuals we support, we're looking for people who bring experience of providing care and support within the Health & Social Care sector with the ability to lone work and have confidence to manage behaviours that can challenge.
We will also need you to bring a commitment to studying for and achieving an SVQ (SCQF level 7) and completing training and further qualifications which are identified as essential for our service. We will fund and support you with any training and qualifications you'll need and we will even reimburse your yearly SSSC registration and PVG fees!
To be a great Complex Care Practitioner, you'll need: -
Experience of providing care and support to adults with learning disabilities and/or of working in a forensic service
A solid understanding of professional boundaries, accountabilities and responsibilities
A passion for delivering excellent person-led care and support
Excellent communication skills (verbal, listening and written)
Numeracy skills to ensure accurate records are kept
The ability and confidence to deal with behaviours that can challenge
A caring and professional attitude and approach
A positive approach to learning
Confidence in the use of computers
It would be great if you also have:-
A full, clean driving license as some of the people we support have their own mobility cars and enjoy going out for drives (but this isn't a deal breaker for the right candidates).
Shift Patterns
Typically, shift patterns will fall between the hours of 0800-2200 hours, but can vary on occasion if the individuals we support have events planned that they'd like to attend. Weekends, public holidays and waking nights will also form part of your rota on a rotational basis. However, we appreciate the importance of a work life balance and offer flexibility where we can.
What makes Cornerstone a great place to work
You'll have a meaningful job doing things that you enjoy - it often doesn't feel like work
Your job actually changes and improves lives - you'll make a difference in your local community
We have a culture of empowering our colleagues and teamwork
No uniform - we wear our own casual clothes
We fund up to £500 towards driving lessons
We reimburse your yearly SSSC registration fees
Access to funded qualifications through our SQA approved, award winning Training Academy
Ongoing continued professional development and career progression opportunities
Recommend a colleague bonus scheme
Long service awards
Access to a 24/7 independent employee assistance helpline
26 days annual leave (rising by 5 days after 5 years) plus 4 paid bank holidays
Family friendly leave options, including family, parental, bereavement and special leave
Access to lots of discounts, including the cinema, gym memberships, holidays and shopping to name a few
Successful candidates will be required to join the Protection of Vulnerable Groups Scheme and be committed to working towards an SVQ in Social Services and Healthcare with the support from our Training Academy.
Please note - If you have spent more than 12 months out with the UK (excluding France, Germany. Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania or Spain) within the last 10 years while over the age of 18, you will be asked to provide a criminal record certificate from the relevant government/police authority as part of our pre-employment checks.
If you’re successful in joining our team, we will need you to register with the SSSC within 3 months of starting your employment with us.
We are looking to fill these vacancies as soon as possible so reserve the right to close our advert early if we find suitable candidates before the closing date. Please apply early to avoid disappointment.
