Support Worker -Female

We are looking for Female Support Workers in New Milton to cover various shifts from full time, part time and relief to suit you.  

We are looking for people who share our values and can support people to have the life they want to live.  We are fortunate to be supporting two young autisitc people in their own home in New Milton.  Both people are very able and need a degree of support to navigate their lives.  Both are gentle and enjoy a peaceful environment.  We support them to develop their independence and confidence in their respective decision making.  Empowerment is the key word and we have seen them develop into very capable young people.

Colleagues need to be able to drive the vehicles belonging to the people we support (manual drivers only) as they enjoy a wide range of social activities within the surrounding area.  Daily walks in the beautiful surroundings of the New Forest and local beaches are essential for both people as well as support to attend local clubs, animal therapy, swimming and a variety of other activities.  

A variety of shifts are available and you would be expected to sleep over on a rotation basis as well as work alternate weekends.  The role would suit part time working but we will consider full time.

Dimensions are one of the country’s largest not-for-profit organisations supporting people with learning difficulties, autism, behaviours of distress and complex needs and we are driven by our values.  People with learning disabilities and their families are at the heart of everything we do.

Dimensions is a leading social care provider in England and Wales, supporting people with learning disabilities and autism
