Job Description:
What's the Role: Support Worker
What It Takes:
An important part of the staff role is to support our service users who have complex needs and help them to manage their emotions. So the ability to be resilient, to communicate effectively and to utilise a variety of communication tools is essential.
Our dedicated staff team supports our service users to learn and develop their independence skills which includes tasks such as shopping, cleaning their flat, personal care, accessing the community, budgeting, and taking medication. Each staff member has something to bring to the role, and we encourage staff to use their humour, sense of fun, and creativity in supporting our service users with day-to-day life.
The role involves shift work, and as such, flexibility to work a combination of early shifts, late shifts, and weekends is essential. Availability to do x2 sleep-over shifts per month is required.
Where You Would Work: Manor View, Manorhamilton, Co. Leitrim
Praxis Manor View provides bespoke residential care to one service user with a diagnosis of mild to moderate intellectual disability, autism, OCD, and behaviours that challenge. In Manor View, we strive to ensure that this service is tailored to the individual's needs with a person-centred approach. The resident has a dedicated key working team who are there to support the resident in achieving his goals, dreams, and aspirations. Resident rights and choice are promoted within the scheme with the residents being actively involved in the home and community. Staff are visitors in the resident's home and therefore must practice the values of dignity and respect at all times.
