Newhouse is located in the semi-rural village of Hurlford, near Kilmarnock, Scotland. Our home offers residential support for 22 adults with a primary learning disability diagnosis, who may also have physical health needs, or be on the autism spectrum.

Key Responsibilities

You will be part of a compassionate team who are committed to our residents wellbeing. We take a personalised approach, using proven therapies to help people move forward with confidence and build a healthier, more fulfilling future. As a support worker, you will play a key part in their recovery, assisting qualified staff with the assessment and implementation of individual patient care plans, undertaking routine tasks and activities as directed or delegated to facilitate wellbeing, dignity and treatment of residents.

• Supporting with personal care tasks, such as washing, dressing, eating and personal care
• Perform light housekeeping tasks, such as dusting, vacuuming, and changing bed clothes
• Assist with safe lifting, transferring, repositioning and movement of individuals
• Assistance and support to attend medical appointments

Skills, Knowledge & Expertise

Our work is rewarding but can be challenging, so resilience is key. No two days are the same! Your natural empathy will help you support others through both the highs and lows.

Excellent interpersonal skills and a caring nature are essential, along with empathy, understanding, and patience. The ability to work both independently and as part of a team is important, as is the capability to understand and follow policies and procedures. Being able to anticipate and respond effectively to challenges is also required. Competence in verbal and written English is necessary, and while a healthcare qualification is desirable, it is not essential.
