Role: Relief Support Worker
Location: Various locations across Northern Ireland
Hours: Flexible day, evening and night cover shifts, including weekdays and weekends on an ad-hoc basis.
About the Role
As a Relief Support Worker, you will help create a calm, safe and homely environment where people are supported to live as independently as possible and stay connected to the people and activities that matter to them.

  • Provide personal care, including support with showering, bathing, changing and toileting.

About You
We are looking for people who are compassionate, resilient and committed to delivering support with warmth, kindness and dignity.
  • Remain calm and confident in services where people may communicate distress through behaviours that challenge.
  • Follow agreed support plans, guidance and risk assessments.
  • Respect people's choices, privacy and dignity at all times.
  • Work independently and as part of a team.
  • Build strong, respectful relationships with the people we support, their families and colleagues.
