About the service

Ayrshire Care at Home and Housing Support Services

Sense Scotland supports a number of adults with communication support needs and /or a physical/learning disability across Ayrshire. Within Ayrshire we provide Care at Home and Housing Support services to 5 individuals within their own tenancies. Sense provides flexible 24hr support to the people we work for and pride themselves on ensuring that small dedicated teams of support are built round the people we work for to ensure they have consistency in their lives.

The current vacancy is driver essential and based in the Saltcoats area of North Ayrshire. The ability to work early and back shifts and sleepovers is required.
All of the people who use our services require practical help for day to day living including assistance to communicate their needs, support with mobility and in some cases support with eating and drinking and personal care. Some individuals do not communicate through speech but through their behaviour and for some this can present challenges. You will receive extensive training in understanding behaviours and how best to manage this.

The nature of the services provided by Sense Scotland means that no two days look the same. We are looking to recruit an individual that is open to trying new activities and who is able to contribute their skills to ensure that the people we work for have as fulfilling a life as possible. As well as promoting the importance of social activities and building community connection there is an expectation that the successful candidate will take responsibility for ensuring the individuals health needs are met. The ability to work as a team towards meeting the outcomes of the service is essential.
