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.

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.
