    Community Integrated Care is one of the UK's largest health and social care charities. We transform lives by delivering high-quality, person-centred support that fosters independence and empowerment.

    Our charity was founded in 1988 and we were one of the pioneers of the 'Care in the Community' agenda, enabling people to move out of long-stay institutions and live more fulfilling lives.

    Since then, we've remained leaders in social care, providing bespoke support to thousands across the UK. Today, we support more than 2,600 people and employ 6,600 caring and committed colleagues across England and Scotland.

    We have a proud history of breaking boundaries and are always looking for new ways to make a positive difference through bold ideas, innovative projects and impactful partnerships.
  • Who you'll be supporting & more about the role:
  • We all live within our own flats at Glendale House, there are 22 flats of different sizes, and our ages range from around 19 to 70 and the service has been open from 2014.

    We all have different support needs and like support to become independent in different aspects of our life such as cooking, budgeting, shopping, prompts with personal care, etc and to achieve our everyday goals and aspirations.

    We are all independent in that we can come and go as we please, however we may also require support to integrate into the local community.

    We have a lovely staff team, some of whom have worked here for as long as the service has been open.They are all very knowledgeable about our care and support and have received regular training to ensure they have exactly the right skills to support us.They have training such as Mental Health awareness, suicide awareness, safeguarding, administration of medication, epilepsy awareness and lots more!We strive to ensure training is up to date and our staff can complete apprenticeships to further their knowledge.

    We usually have around 3-5 staff on at Glendale, however this reduces to 1 member at night as no one has 1-1 support during the night, but it's nice to have someone there if we need them.

    We have different shifts, dayshifts are - 8am - 10pm, 10am - 5pm, 1pm- 9pm and night shift10pm - 8 am.However, these can at times change as our staff are flexible around us so that we can enjoy the things we like to such as going to the theatre or cinema.
