Lifeways Complex Care and Autism Division are currently looking to recruit permanent members of staff for Unity House in Peterlee, County Durham.

Unity House is a 21 bedded residential home which provides accommodation for adults aged 18 and over.

Individuals who reside at the home have a diagnosis of intellectual disability and may also have co-existing conditions including mental health and/or physical impairments.

The service provides support to adults who can present with behavioural distress which require passionate, empathetic and understanding support workers.

The overarching aim of the service is to ensure people we support receive the highest quality of life which can be attained.

Candidate Profile:

We are currently looking for staff with drive and a passion for supporting adults with all aspects of everyday life, which can include personal care tasks. There is an emphasis on developing and promoting independence.

The role requires a staff member who can approach support with this value at the forefront at all times.

Experience is not essential as full induction and onsite training will be provided. We look for staff who understand the importance of teamwork and can use their initiative to solve problems which may arise.

Unity House uses a person-centred approach which matches the support staff skills with people we support to ensure the best quality of support can be offered.
