About the Job

As a Support Worker at our Powys DCA, you will work with people who have varying degrees of learning disabilities and physical disabilities, to promote independence and support them to lead as fulfilling life as possible, incorporating both therapy based activities and social based activities.

Throughout a typical day, you’ll help the people we support with the everyday challenges of washing, dressing and eating. Crucially, enabling them to carry out tasks, chores and hobbies that most people take for granted but are really meaningful for your client. You’ll be out and about, enjoying life together and no single day will be the same.

For Support Workers in this location, experience is desirable, however all of our staff will complete a full induction including one to one training and shadow shifts to give a deep understanding of the role while allowing you to get to know the people we support. This style of training allows the people we support get to know you and feel comfortable around you before you begin to support them.
