Job Description: Would you like to be part of a nice team of professionals around a disabled young man. We are hiring for a Support worker to cover both Waking night shifts and day shifts to support a 19 year young person who has epilepsy, PMLD, is non verbal, has a movement disorder and additional health needs. He lives at home with his family and dog. We will need to find someone to take on 2 regular waking nights and 2 day shifts per week. The nights are strictly waking nights to keep him safe and take care of all health needs and alert the parents in case of a seizure or if there is any other emergency. Each waking night shift is 13 hours long. 20.00 -09.00. We feel consecutive nights work best. We need to cover either Thursday & Friday or Sunday & Monday. Let us know in your application which nights work best for you and if you are interested in covering only the 2 waking nights (26 hours per week) or would also be happy to take on day shifts (day shifts are mostly 8 hours long. We would not consider someone to take on only day shifts. This position works for someone who has a strong interest in working with disabled and autistic people. We hope to find someone who has worked with special needs people before and / or is studying a related field. We would ideally hope to find someone who is flexible to occasionally take on extra shifts and who has some availability during weekends and the Christmas period. The pay rate is £16 during training (£206 during training and probation) this increases to £17 per hour (£221 per night after probation). Bank holidays are paid at double rate. 6 months probation. The minimum hours per week are 26 hours (if part time), Fulltime the minimum amount of hours will be 37.5 hours per week. There is always the possibility for more hours. The team is fair with each other to also cover some weekends and holidays like Christmas and of course they cover for each others holidays and if someone is ill. We would prefer someone to work with a UTR number on a self-employed basis but if you needed a PAYE then this could be provided through a care agency we work with. Please let us know in your own words - why you are interested or what experience you have - this helps us to understand if we can work together (please write in your own words and no AI :) . Importantly we need to find someone who can also support during some of the Christmas period and Easter. You would need to be quite fit and strong and ideally not be too petite either as you would be working with a still growing young man with a movement disorder. Please let us know in your application if you are interested to cover only nights or also day shifts. Most training during the first few weeks will be during the days and only after a few weeks be waking night training. Please before you apply read the full ad. Thank you. About the young person He is a very friendly and active profoundly autistic young man / teenager who is non verbal. He can walk short distances but only with a lot of support, otherwise he is in a wheelchair. His communication is mainly through pictures of reference and he is taught life skills with ABA principles. We will train you in behaviour therapy (ABA) and would expect you to follow our training. There are regular team meetings and you would attend those meetings too. He sometimes is also tired and unwell after a seizure or other illness and will then just need care and nurturing and patience. Sometimes he has to be in hospital and a member of his team would be there with him - so waking nights could also be at hospital. As he has a movement disorder he needs a lot of physical support. He lives with his family and also a dog. About you You would need to be able to appreciate a person who has profound autism and treat him with dignity and kindness. You would be someone who has interest in special needs, psychology and perhaps nursing. You would perhaps have studied a related field or are planning to study a related field. This position is very different from working in a care home and would be far more active even during waking nights. You would be assisting him with everyday skills as well as bathing, toileting and sometimes assisting with a late dinner. If you have experience with intermittent catheterisation, Peristeen system as well as PEG feeding then that is an advantage but we can easily also train those skills too. (Please research all terms you are unsure about before you apply). When working a waking overnight shift you will need to make sure that he is safe and alert parents in case of a seizure. Before and after a waking night you need to be able to rest. We would not consider someone who has a second job. This position also involves keeping his environment generally tidy and clean and help with his laundry. You should be responsible, cheerful, honest and very reliable, physically strong and healthy as he needs a lot of support. You would need to be flexible and sometime cover for other people in the team if they are away on holidays or ill.
