- Opportunities to complete additional hours at an enhanced rate of pay.
- Some weekend working, on a rota basis
- Some bank holiday working – enhanced rates of pay for bank holiday working.
Designated days off are given following sleep ins and waking nights to promote wellbeing and recovery.
Your role as a Residential Care Worker:
You will engage with and support young people in all aspects of their lives, attending to their practical, physical, and emotional needs, whilst safeguarding each young person at all times.
You will be an allocated keyworker for one of the four young people, acting in the capacity of a corporate parent. The outcome of this being that you support the management team to ensure the collation and coordination of supporting information, pertinent to the young person's everyday life, which will be used to demonstrate the journey of the child whilst residing at the home.
On a rota basis, you will also share the responsibility (alongside other Residential Care Workers) of being allocated as shift leader. This ensures each day is purposeful and coordinated, to enhance opportunities for positive achievements and outcomes for the young people.
You will support young people to enhance their social opportunities by accessing hobbies & activities in the home and in the community. This could include supporting young people to access meals out/cinema/theatre/activity clubs etc and engage with fun nights in e.g. Movie/pamper/ games nights etc.
If you have residential experience, are passionate about the children in your care and can show understanding, tenacity, consistency of care and the ability to engage with a wide range of young people – this may be the opportunity for you!
