What is a Support Worker?
A Support Worker at Superior provides high-quality care and support to clients with complex healthcare needs. You’ll have the opportunity to build strong relationships with one or a few clients in your local area.
Your role will involve ensuring that each client receives person-centred care and helping them lead fulfilling and happy lives.
What does a Support Worker do?
Being a Support Worker is rewarding and fulfilling, and you’ll cover a wide range of tasks. Throughout, our nurse managers and field care supervisors will ensure you have the knowledge and skills to provide safe, effective care.
Day-to-day
Your daily tasks may include supporting clients with personal care, moving and handling, medication administration, activity planning, and community access.
You may also provide clinical support, including tracheostomy, PEG, and ventilation management.
Supporting clients
One of the most rewarding aspects of being a Support Worker is the ability to make a tangible difference in clients’ lives.
You’ll help clients achieve their goals and lead fulfilling lives. The satisfaction of seeing clients happy is unparalleled. This sense of accomplishment and the opportunity to positively impact clients’ lives are what complex care assistants at Superior Healthcare cherish most about their role.
You may work closely with nurses or other complex care assistants in a small, collaborative team. Some clients receive one-to-one care, while others may need double-handed care around the clock.
High-standard training included
As a new member of our complex care team, you’ll receive excellent training from our clinical educators, both in-person and online – and we’ll pay you for those hours, too.
Your initial training will be a five-day induction, offering you a chance to enhance and refresh your skills and meet other support workers, complex care assistants and registered nurses.
If a client’s needs require additional skills, such as tracheostomy care, airway management, or enteral feeding, we offer paid specialist training to enhance your skills further.
You’ll be thoroughly supported after your training, and we’ll offer you the chance to enrol in Level 2 to 5 Diplomas in Health and Social Care.
