  • Work calmly and confidently in a service that may involve incidents of behaviours that challenge
  • Follow agreed support plans and risk assessments to keep everyone safe
  • Provide practical care with warmth, kindness, and dignity
  • Work independently or as part of a team
  • Build strong, respectful relationships with the people we support

All new staff will receive full training on personal care and positive behaviour support, including how to safely use personal safety techniques in line with our organisational training.

We also offer:

  • Award-winning induction and development programmes
  • Regular supervision and peer support
  • Clear progression pathways for long-term careers in care
