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.
At Lanark we support 9 individuals with learning disabilities to lead independent lives and provide person centred care and support to vulnerable individuals.Help transform lives like J's:
Hi, I’m J and I reside in the Lanark Project with 8 other people. I have a learning disability, and I am passionate about life.
I love music and it is a special interest of mine. I enjoy attending raves and going out for lunch. I also like to play Sonic on my PlayStation.
When it comes to supporting me, I require someone who can support me to do all the things I enjoy, share my zest for life and promote my independence.
I sometimes require support overnight; this may be a cuppa and a chat. I need someone who has good values and who has patience and can show empathy.
Are you ready to make a real difference to me and people like me?
