This would involve the following - supporting and encouraging them to take medication, supporting them to attend appointments regarding their mental and physical health, supporting them to maintain their personal hygiene, encouraging them to learn skills for activities of daily living (e.g. cleaning, cooking, food preparation, laundry). You will also encourage them to take part in community activities and assist with identifying suitable choices.

As part of this you would need to keep and update reports, monitor medication, liaise with mental health and other medical professionals, and outside community resources. Your duties would also include preparing meals for the residents and some cleaning of the property.

We are a small company and work closely as a team, which helps us keep our high standards and high levels of support. Getting to know our service users is essential for their progression.

We have seen fantastic results with our residents and our hard working friendly approach is key to these outcomes.
