Support Worker

OptimumCare4u
London

About Us

Optimumcare4u is a leading care provider dedicated to delivering high-quality, person-centred support to individuals with learning disabilities, autism, complex needs, and behaviours that may challenge. We are committed to helping the people we support live fulfilling, independent, and meaningful lives within their communities.

About the Role

We are currently seeking experienced and compassionate Support Workers to join our growing team. The successful candidate will provide practical, emotional, and social support to individuals, enabling them to achieve their personal goals, maintain their independence, and enjoy a high quality of life.

This role requires previous experience supporting individuals with learning disabilities and autism. Experience working with people who present behaviours that challenge and those with epilepsy or seizure-related conditions is highly desirable.

Support Workers will assist individuals with daily living activities, personal care where required, medication support, community access, social engagement, and the development of independent living skills. You will be expected to follow person-centred support plans, risk assessments, and company policies to ensure safe and effective service delivery.

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver person-centred support tailored to individual needs.
  • Support individuals with daily living tasks, personal care, and community activities.
  • Assist with medication administration and health-related support.
  • Follow epilepsy and seizure management plans where applicable.
  • Complete accurate records, reports, and care documentation.
  • Promote independence, dignity, choice, and inclusion.
  • Safeguard vulnerable adults and report concerns appropriately.
  • Work collaboratively with families, healthcare professionals, and colleagues.

Requirements

Applicants must have a minimum of six months' experience working within a health and social care environment as a Support Worker, Healthcare Assistant, or in a similar role. Candidates should have experience supporting individuals with learning disabilities and autism and possess a good understanding of person-centred care principles.

Knowledge of epilepsy and seizure management is essential. Candidates who already hold relevant training certificates are encouraged to apply; however, additional training and development opportunities will be provided by the company.

Successful applicants should possess strong communication skills, a caring and professional attitude, the ability to remain calm under pressure, and a genuine passion for supporting vulnerable individuals.

What We Offer

We offer competitive rates of pay, ongoing training and development opportunities, flexible working patterns, career progression prospects, and the opportunity to work within a supportive and dedicated team that values high-quality care and professional growth.

If you are passionate about making a positive difference in the lives of others and meet the above requirements, we would love to hear from you.
