Job Advert Role Description

We are currently looking to grow our already established and dedicated team of support workers at Oaklands in Derby, part of Priory Adult Care.

Oaklands is a rehabilitation service and as a result provides a well structured routine for everyone living there. As part of the rehabilitation programme, the service is run by the people who live here, with the support of the staff, where required.

• Do you believe that everyone is entitled to the very best care and support?
• Do you want to make a lasting difference in people’s lives?
• Do you want to support people to help them achieve their goals, dreams and aspirations?

We do and we are passionate about providing excellent care and support to individuals in our care. As a support worker, you will have the opportunity to be part of 1000s of stories of inspiring care and support for our residents.

As a support worker you will be supporting our residents with their day to day lives, encouraging them to live as independently as possible. You may get involved in exciting activities outside of the home too – our residents participate in day trips, charity events and much more!

Our Ideal Support Worker Will

• Be reliable, friendly and caring to help our residents achieve their everyday goals (including personal care)
• Be able to support in house activities and hobbies
• Be attentive and inspire our residents to achieve more!
• Be resilient and help manage some behaviours that challenge

What We’ll Give You

• A rewarding job, full of variety and opportunities for career development
• Brilliant, ongoing training to help you achieve more
• Support of an experienced and friendly team of colleagues
• Access to our Career Pathways, which will help shape your career with us – you can work towards goals and milestones that will take your career in whichever direction you wish
