We seek a highly-skilled social care professional to join the senior team of our leading local charity, who will provide high-quality support to family carers of adults with a learning disability and/or autism in the London Borough of Merton.
Could this be you?
You will conduct Carers Assessments in which you identify the needs of carers to determine the support they require, which may include financial support, respite care for the person they care for, and practical assistance. You will form Support Plans with carers which show the ways in which support will be provided to improve their health and wellbeing, and help them in their caring role, and you will assist carers to access appropriate support. Your periodic reviews with carers will monitor the effectiveness of Support Plans to ensure carers continue to receive the help they need.
You will work closely with colleagues, the charity’s partners and other organisations to coordinate care and support for carers, facilitating introductions with other care providers and ensuring carers receive information to help them in their caring role. Key to your work is ensuring services ‘join-up’ so that coordinated, highly professional support is provided to carers.
You will maintain a record of your work by using our databases which you will use to produce quarterly reports and case studies demonstrating the impact of your work.
This role is an important feature of the charity’s strategic offer for family carers. You will join our senior team dedicated to providing the highest quality care, and you’ll have the opportunity to contribute to the wider work of the charity such as by attending our frequent events, workshops and social events for carers.
This role is a hybrid position - duties can be undertaken from home, from our offices in Morden, and by conducting home-visits with carers by appointment.
Although not essential, we encourage applications from people with lived experience of learning disability and autism, such as from parents and carers, and we offer flexible working arrangements.
You will receive our mandatory training in safeguarding, health & safety, confidentiality, equal opportunities & diversity and mental health awareness, plus more technical training including risk assessment, first aid and using IT databases.
All our appointments are subject to interview, an enhanced DBS disclosure and 2 satisfactory references.
Supporting children, young people and adults with a learning disability and/or autism and their parents and carers to live full and rewarding lives
