Support Worker / Intervenor – South-East Hertfordshire Area

Looking for a new challenge?

We are now looking for Senior Support Workers / Intervenors to join our Intervenor Service in the Hertfordshire area, working across various locations such as Cheshunt.

Our Intervenors work 1:1 with children and adults who were born deafblind known as congenital Deafblindness, often with other complex needs, working with them and their family or carers to develop a way of communicating.

Intervenors promote personal and social development whilst encouraging independence through enabling access to activities.

You will receive specialist training in how to support individuals who are congenitally deafblind, often combined with other disabilities.

This role might include supporting people with:

• Day to day activities led by the person you'll be supporting.

• Enabling an independent lifestyle.

• Accessing a variety of different activities in their home based around their sensory needs, communication preferences and interests.

• Personal care and hygiene.

• Community access for shopping, social activities or other trips.

They are currently interested in accessing social events to develop their peer group and explore the steps to gaining employment. Their main form of communication is British Sign Language. If you feel you have the right skills to match this person, then we would be interested to hear from you.
