About the role
You'll provide dedicated support to a wonderful woman living in her own home in Rumney, Cardiff. This is a varied, rewarding role where you'll play an important part in helping her live the life she chooses, supporting her both at home and out enjoying the activities she loves most.
You'll provide caring, hands-on support with all aspects of daily life, including personal care, medication, meal preparation, and creating a safe, comfortable, and happy home environment. You'll take the time to understand her unique way of communicating, enabling her to express her choices, preferences, and personality while ensuring she feels valued, listened to, and supported.
From trips to the cinema, enjoying playing music, sensory activities, meals out, and even holidays, you'll be actively involved in helping her make the most of every opportunity. She enjoys being out and about, so we're looking for someone who is enthusiastic, energetic, and keen to get involved. For longer outings, she may use a wheelchair, so you'll be comfortable providing practical support when needed.
This role includes short days, long day shifts, sleep-ins, and alternate weekends, with shifts starting from 8am.
If you're looking for a role that is fun, meaningful, and filled with opportunities to make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
About you
You don't need previous experience in care, just the right values. We're looking for someone who is kind, patient, reliable, and passionate about helping others live fulfilling lives.
You'll enjoy building meaningful relationships, celebrating achievements, and supporting people to be as independent as possible. Whether you're helping someone learn a new skill, enjoy a day out, or simply have a great day, you'll bring positivity and encouragement to everything you do.
You'll be a great team player, willing to learn, and confident communicating with the people we support, their families, and colleagues. Being calm, adaptable, and able to use your initiative will help you thrive in this role.
Basic IT skills are required, as you'll use digital systems to complete training and record support notes.
Most importantly, you'll share our values of respect, inclusion, ambition, and courage, helping create a warm, supportive environment where people can live the life they choose.
