Do you like to help people reach their full potential? Be the Difference: Join Us as a Care Assistant!
We believe that each person must be at the centre of their world, and of the support and care they may require to lead life to the full in their own way.
About Us:
The Frances Taylor Foundation provides a comprehensive array of social care and support services, all rooted in a person-centred approach. We operate across Liverpool and Merseyside, Brighton and Hove, and Greater London.
Our services have a rich history. In the 1980s and 1990s, as the UK transitioned from large institutions to smaller community-based care for people with learning disabilities, we were at the forefront. We've continued to evolve, modernising our offerings to meet the changing needs and preferences of those we support. Some of our services are housed in brand new facilities, reflecting our commitment to innovation and understanding the unique aspirations of individuals. If you believe in personalised care and are ready to make a meaningful impact, we’d love to have you join us.
About the Role:
As a Support Worker, you'll join a committed team that delivers high-quality care and support. This pivotal role involves:

• Assisting residents with daily living activities such as personal care, administering medication, and mealtime support.
• Organising and encouraging daily activities that contribute to residents' well-being, enhance their autonomy, and preserve their dignity.
• Offering companionship and positive reinforcement through meaningful interactions and active engagement with residents.
