About the Learning Disability Support Worker Role:

At Continuity of Care Services Ltd, we believe care and support is about more than tasks- it's about connection, trust, and helping someone live life to the fullest.

We are looking for a kind, patient, and reliable Learning Disability Support Worker to support a sociable and engaging 18-year-old young man with complex needs living in Ramsgate to access a range of social events and activities. He lives with Autism, Treacher Collins Syndrome, and learning disabilities. He is non-verbal, registered as profoundly deaf, and communicates primarily through British Sign Language (BSL). At times, he may exhibit self- injurious behaviours; therefore, it is important that he is supported by an individual who remains calm, patient, understanding, and consistent in their approach. More than anything, he needs someone willing to take the time to get to know him. He enjoys getting out and about bowling, swimming, bus and train rides, trips to the park, and spending time in the community. At home, he enjoys participating in sensory activities.

Your role will be to support him safely, encourage his independence, and help him enjoy the activities he loves. He enjoys keeping busy and engaged in a wide range of activities.
