Hamilton
Full time & sessional contract available
Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?
Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!
Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.
Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.
The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me
The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.
Noah is a vibrant, energetic and engaging young man who draws people in with his unique personality and charm. He enjoys connecting with the people around him, and it’s important that those who support him take the time to build a trusting relationship. Noah has Dravet syndrome, a learning disability and ADHD, and he relies on consistent support to help him manage day‑to‑day life safely and comfortably.
His team provide assistance with all aspects of daily living, including personal care, behaviour support and working towards meaningful goals that help him enjoy life to the fullest. Noah can become anxious, unsettled or physically distressed at times, and he needs calm, confident staff who can support him through these moments.
Noah thrives on activity and sensory stimulation. He loves being outdoors, especially visiting parks, going for walks, or enjoying time at the basketball court. He also enjoys pouring drinks, sensory play and helping with small tasks at home. Noah has a big love for music, particularly karaoke, and enjoys engaging activities like playing with his toy dog, exploring abandoned buildings with support, and spending time in quieter, less crowded spaces.
That is why Noah needs you! Will you bring your best so that Noah can live his best life?
