Support Worker

Two ladies who Dimensions support at their supported living home Upper Parkstone, Poole would like some new Female Support Workers to join the team who enable them to live an independent life.
The ladies who are aged in their 20's-30's, are autistic/have learning disabilities. They would be happy to meet either full or part-time Female Support Workers who would like to get involved in activities such as:

Visiting Bournemouth Oceanarium and going to zoo's
Watching TV and telling stories
Taking us out to meet new people
Going out for meals in local pubs, cafes and restaurants
Sensory activities in the house
One of the ladies uses a wheelchair to meet her mobility needs all the time, the other when out of the house but as you can see it doesn't stop them living an active life.
