About the Role
We're looking for Support Workers to join our team in Ormesby, where three brilliant gentlemen in their 50s and 60s share a welcoming home. Each person we support has complex health needs, including PEG and stoma care, so confidence with personal care, moving and assisting (including hoists), and PEG feeding is essential.
You'll work 1:1, but never alone, there are always three team members on shift, ensuring consistent, high-quality support. The gentlemen love getting out and about, whether it's scenic drives through Norfolk, music and sensory sessions or weekly boat rides on the Broads.
We'll provide all the training you need including your Care Certificate and opportunities for further qualifications. Whether you're experienced or just starting out, if you share our values of respect, partnership, courage, ambition, and integrity, we'll help you succeed.

- 7am-10pm
