Main duties of the job

Meet Our Client

We are supporting a sociable gentleman in his 50s who lives in Warrington. He has a great sense of humour, enjoys a good laugh, and values spending time chatting and socialising with the people around him.

He particularly enjoys getting out and about in his van, trying his luck on the fruit machines, and spending time at the pub. Being out in the community and engaging with others is very important to him, and he especially enjoys building positive relationships with his care team.

During day shifts, you will provide support with his personal care, moving and handling, temperature regulation, and any clinical needs he may have. Alongside his care needs, a key part of the role will be supporting him to enjoy meaningful day-to-day activities and helping him stay active within the community.

You will take a person-centred approach, interacting with him in a positive and engaging way while encouraging his independence and supporting his overall wellbeing.

This is a rewarding opportunity for someone who enjoys building strong relationships and making a real difference to someones day.
