Job Description

Thompson Holistic Care Services (THCS) is a domiciliary care agency based in London, whose mission is supporting Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivors across the UK. THCS specialises in supporting clients with histories of non-engagement - whether due to breakdowns in professional and personal relationships - through highly-responsive, client-centered support packages.

At THCS, we support adults living with enduring, complex brain injuries and support needs to live more safely and independently in their own homes and communities. With the high-quality continuity of support provided by our rehabilitation support workers, we work with multi-disciplinary teams (MDTs) such as case managers, social workers, neurologists, psychologists, and therapists to carry out evidence-based rehabilitation programs.

THCS takes pride in delivering high-quality continuity of support for all of our clients, whilst support all of our staff. We recruit specifically and to permanent roles, providing highly-trained and experienced rehabilitation support workers to find the right 'match' for our clients - most of our support workers have been working closely with us for more than four years. Our organisation has been described as a "phenomenal" boutique support service, often going above and beyond to help those with life-changing injuries to get their lives back on track.

We are currently recruiting a male or female rehabilitation support worker to work with our ABI/TBI client in Ramsgate, Kent (postcode CT12).

Because of our client's complex needs,

brain injury experience is essential and must be clearly demonstrated on your CV

; we can only consider applicants whose CVs clearly demonstrate their ABI/TBI experience.

Our client recently sustained a brain injury earlier this year, and is seeking an experienced ABI/TBI rehabilitation support worker to help him to build a daily routine, and to facilitate access to his local community. The ideal rehabilitation support worker will also help our client to develop and maintain greater purpose, structure, and daily routine as he tries to regain independence with independent living skills and activities of daily living, whilst supporting him to engage with his multi-disciplinary team and therapists. No personal care is required.

Our client requires a rehabilitation support worker for

6 hours weekly

, which can be spread either across two three-hour sessions, or one six-hour session, with days and times to be agreed, paying

13.00 to 15.00 per hour

dependent on experience. Access to your own vehicle is desirable to facilitate community visits with our client. Candidates seeking sponsorship need not apply.

The ideal rehabilitation support worker should be a resilient, reliable, and experienced ABI/TBI support worker who demonstrates a high standard of written and verbal communication skills, quickly builds and maintains positive working relationships, and works calmly and effectively in challenging environments. If you are interested in working with our small, highly-focused team to empower our client to live more independently, then please forward your CV.
