Support Worker with Potens: South Molton – #CreateYourFuture

Want a job where you don’t need experience? You’ll get full training provided with Potens!

Have you considered a career in social care but don’t yet have any experience?

Maybe you already work in the care sector and are looking for a new challenge?

No matter what background you come from be it retail, office, care or otherwise, we can get you started with our expert training which is a combination of face to face, online and shadowing our existing staff enabling you to start your care career or develop existing skills.

We are set in six acres of land giving us a beautiful working environment and great surroundings to encourage independence and outdoor activities when possible.

As we are based in South Molton, and we recognise travel can be an issue so we will be providing transport to and from our residential service to local towns to open up opportunities for those who don’t drive and make starting your social care career at Potens an option. (This will include local towns such as South Molton & Barnstaple)

The Home is a residential home consisting of eight bedrooms all en-suite. We support people across a range of activities that can include swimming, cinema, theatre, outdoor pursuits, forest school or more day to day tasks such as shopping a visit to the pub or even accompanying them on holiday.

Our main aim is to provide a homely environment for people with Learning Disabilities in which continuous encouragement, education and stimulation are the core elements in the daily lives of the people we support.

This Support Worker role includes an expectation for staff to fulfil personal care tasks for the people we support who require full support to wash, bath, shower, toilet and dress. If you have patience, compassion, and a willingness to learn apply today and let us give you the skills to begin changing lives daily.
