Bank Support Worker

For genuine occupational requirements we require female candidates for this client.

Due to the rural location, you will need to have access to your own transport.

Are you looking for a role for Bank Day & Night shifts?

Would you love a rewarding role, supporting our client with complex health needs in her own home?

Active Assistance – Specialist Complex Care at Home Across the UK

For over 30 years, we’ve been providing compassionate, person-centred care that makes a genuine difference to the lives of individuals and their families across England.

Our approach is simple: support people to live safely, comfortably and as independently as possible in the place they call home.

We’re now looking for a Female Bank Support Worker to join our dedicated care team supporting our client in her home in Redditch.

In this role, you’ll support one individual with complex needs as part of a consistent care team, with regular weekly shifts and rotas planned in advance. While the role is offered on a flexible zero-hours contract, the work is ongoing and typically provides a stable working pattern with the same client.

Meet the client:

Our client is a warm, friendly lady who lives in a peaceful area of Redditch with her son, a polite young man with autism, and their two much-loved cats.

She is living with a spinal cord injury and requires support with her daily care, including tracheostomy and ventilator support, Type 2 diabetes, personal care and safe moving and handling.

Her care team plays an important role in helping her remain comfortable, safe and independent at home. She uses a ceiling hoist for all transfers between her bed and chair, with slide sheets used for repositioning in bed, in line with her care plan and current risk assessments.

She is able to feed herself independently and simply needs support workers to prepare and position her meals, drinks and cutlery within easy reach. Once everything is set up, she is happy to enjoy her meal independently.

Outside of her care needs, she loves gardening and enjoys having a supportive team around her. She values honesty, openness, respect and kindness, and believes strongly in working together as a team.

We're looking for someone who shares these values, is compassionate and reliable, and understands the importance of building a genuine, respectful relationship while supporting her to live life on her own terms.

When you'll be working:

• Fully flexible for Bank Day Shifts & Night Shifts
• 8am - 8pm & 8pm - 8am

What you'll be doing:

This role is to support our female client with a spinal cord injury and complex health needs in her own home. This will involve supporting with personal care, medication, moving and handling and managing clinical equipment.

No previous experience required as full training, shadow shifts and ongoing support will be provided.

Due to the location of the clients home a driver is essential for this role.

What you'll have:

• Kind and caring nature
• Flexibility & reliability
• Good communication skills

What to look forward to:

• Up to £13.00 per hour (increasing to £13.50 after probation)
• Flexible zero hour contract
• An additional 14.07% holiday pay on every hour worked.
• Full specialist training, shadow shifts, and ongoing support from your Care Manager
• Access to the Active Learning Hub – e-learning & in-person development
• Holiday pay, regular monthly rotas, and a Nest pension
• Be recognised through our Active Awards programme
• Refer a friend and earn up to £1,500
• A chance to build a meaningful career with the backing of a leading clinical and business team

At Active Care Group, we want everyone to feel welcome and supported. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences. If you need any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment or interview process, just let us know and we’ll be very happy to discuss this with you.
