Come and join our established learning disability service in Duns as a Support Worker!
We have full and part-time vacancies for Support Workers to join our team at our Station Avenue Learning Disability Service in Duns. Our contracts range from 16 to 37.5 hours per week, with an hourly rate of pay of £13.00.
Whether it is supporting people with their core needs, including personal care, helping with healthy meal planning, and cooking, attending social activities or a spot of gardening, no day is ever the same in social care, that is for sure!
If you have a Driving Licence and are passionate about supporting people to live as independently as possible within their own homes and their local community, this job is for you.
You should ideally have (or be willing to work to achieve) an SVQ3 at SCQF Level 7 in Social Services and Healthcare. You will need good ICT skills and be able to use MS Office 365 as well as care, staff, and housing management software, with a positive approach to learn and use new tools as they become available. Most importantly you should be able to demonstrate a clear understanding of Eildon’s vision and values. We are looking to fill several varying shift patterns including waking nights, over 7 days, with individual requirements being discussed at interview stage.
In return Eildon offer a competitive reward package and a range of benefits. This role requires membership of the Disclosure Scotland PVG Scheme and SSSC Registration.
