Make a real difference while others sleep
At Dimensions, every night is an opportunity to create safety, comfort and reassurance for the people we support. As a Female Waking Nights Support Worker in Stanwell, you’ll play an essential role in supporting people to feel secure, respected and well-cared-for throughout the night.
We’re a leading not-for-profit organisation supporting adults with learning disabilities and autism. Here, you’ll be part of a warm, inclusive team where you can be you, grow your skills, and take pride in meaningful work.
Who you’ll be supporting
You’ll be joining a friendly home supporting five people. They are outgoing, fun, and enjoy a range of interests—from theatre trips and wrestling on TV to karaoke nights, shopping outings, and meals at their favourite places.
While this is a waking-night role, you’ll be supporting their comfort, safety and wellbeing so they can enjoy those daytime experiences.
What your waking-night role includes
Your nights will focus on delivering consistent, respectful support so each person feels safe and cared for. Duties may include:
- Regular night checks to ensure wellbeing
- Repositioning for comfort and pressure care
- Assistance with personal care when needed
- Using hoists and moving & handling equipment
- Supporting people with varied communication needs
- Completing documentation and accurate night records
- Light household tasks to maintain a comfortable environment
You’ll always have support from your team and manager, and full training is provided—including for behaviours of distress, moving & handling, and communication.
