Job description
At Turning Point, we support people with Learning Disabilities across England.
As a Support Worker, you will make a real difference to residents' lives as you improve their daily living skills. Passionate about people, you will enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress with us.
Where will I be working?
We are providing support for adults with learning disabilities and physical disabilities.
The supported living service is situated in Gawthorpe, Wakefield and is close to the M1 and on a bus route. The three bedroomed service supports adults with learning disabilities, varying communication needs, health and mobility issues. The people we support can have busy social lives and enjoy a wide variety of activities which can include day trips, swimming, shopping, bingo, horse riding, cycling and attending social groups. An upbeat, enthusiastic person is required to support with all aspects of daily life and become a part of a friendly and well established team.
You will be required to provide a person-centred approach in all aspects of the client’s lives, including managing their home, some personal care, accessing their local community facilities, and maintaining contact with other important people in their lives. We tailor our services to enable people to be as independent as possible. You will be supporting people who have learning disabilities, Autism and other health conditions. You may be asked to attend GP appointments and hospital appointments. A full UK driving license is preferable.
We use a digital social care record system, to support daily recording, which will make your day-to-day tasks easier and allows you to spend more time with the People We Support.
Training and Development
We offer training to all those who want to develop their skills and competencies not just in the care sector but in other areas too.
Level 2 and 3 Lead Adult Care Worker
Level 3 Operational Team Leader
Please note training will be offered after your probation period ends which is 6 months. Once you begin your training with us you will have your own coach who will support you through your programme.
Shift Patterns
This is a 24 hour service, therefore flexibility is essential. You will be working a range of shifts from 7:00am to 2:00/3:00pm and 2:00/3:00 pm to 9:00/10:00pm, sleep ins or waking nights, some weekends.
Please note that the shifts may vary.
Role Responsibility
What will I be doing?
This is a hands-on job in which no two days are the same. Your duties will include:
promoting the independence of people we support
supporting a full range of daily activities including cleaning and cooking, days out or going away on holiday
arranging activities in the home and in the local community
developing residents' life skills and personal interests
helping residents stay safe and healthy
assisting with personal care needs
manual handling
supporting people with medication
ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements.
The Ideal Candidate
What skills and qualities do I need to have?

passionate, caring and enthusiastic
flexible, patient and non-judgemental
a great team player with lots of energy
able to demonstrate good communication skills
able to complete the physical aspects of the role such as manual handling where needed
transferable experience of helping people to manage anxiety
