CASUAL CARE WORKER/ BANK SUPPORT WORKER

We are proud to say that casual care workers at the Kent Autistic Trust are quite unique. We have a superb track record of successfully supporting individuals with autism, including those with non-verbal communication needs and self-injurious behavior.

We provide 24-hour support and care for autistic adults. Staff provide physical, emotional, and personal care, as well as domestic services in various settings. Some of those we support also have medical conditions including epilepsy.

Working for us often means that no two days are the same, but the care and support we give is consistently high quality, with CQC rating all of our services good, and many outstanding.

Having a background in supporting people with Autism in a previous role within a social care environment is desirable, although it isn\'t essential. What is essential is that you understand that autism can be complex and challenging and that each person we support is unique.

We seek someone who really values every person, whether it\'s the people we support, their families or carers, or other staff by respecting their priorities, needs, abilities and limits. We provide comprehensive training and assessments, and after that we continue to develop our talent through an ongoing learning and development curriculum.

The logistics of the work we do necessitate transporting the people we support to appointments, activities or days out. Driving is therefore an integral responsibility of many of our jobs. Drivers need a full driving licence and the confidence and willingness to drive a small minibus (people carrier) or a mobility car. However, a driving licence is not always an essential criteria for every role but may be an overriding selection criteria.

You will need a sufficient level of fitness as the job is likely to place physical demands on staff including a range of motions of upper extremities, aerobic capacity, strength, body mechanics, balance and ability to follow directions, and are you do you understand that as part of the job you will assist people we support with activities such as swimming which would involve you entering the pool, or participating in activities such as walking or cycling.

If you are looking for flexible work to fit around your commitments our flexible workforce bank could meet your needs. We can offer regular work, occasional shifts or simply work to enable staff to keep their knowledge and skills up to date

We have excellent opportunities for Casual Care Workers to join us at our Canterbury services.
