Support Worker roles in Cwmbran
Protocol Healthcare Services recruits Support Workers in and around Cwmbran for mental health services, learning disability support and community settings. The work is about helping people live the life they want, with as much independence as possible.
Working around Cwmbran
Work comes up near Old Cwmbran, Croesyceiliog and Llantarnam, much of it within reach of The Grange University Hospital. Between Aneurin Bevan University Health Board and Torfaen County Borough Council, most of what we staff around Pontnewydd sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Old Cwmbran, Croesyceiliog and Llantarnam one week, Pontnewydd, Fairwater and Greenmeadow the next. If you are based around NP44 or NP44, you are inside the area we cover most heavily.
A typical shift
- ✓ Supporting people to access work, education, activities and their community
- ✓ Positive behaviour support and de-escalation, with training provided
- ✓ Medication prompting and support appropriate to your training
- ✓ Accurate notes and clear communication with the wider team
- ✓ Supporting people with daily routines and personal care where needed
- ✓ Encouraging independence, choice and everyday decision making
Shifts and contracts
Full-time and part-time patterns both work. If Greenmeadow is easier for you to reach than Two Locks, say so and the rota follows it. Once you are established we keep the work regular rather than sporadic, usually in the same two or three services around Two Locks.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Old Cwmbran and Pontnewydd first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
What you will need
- ✓The right to work in the UK
- ✓Patience, resilience and respect for the people you support
- ✓Good communication skills
- ✓Experience in mental health or learning disability support is desirable, not essential
- ✓An enhanced DBS check, which we can arrange
How we work with you
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your Torfaen shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Cwmbran itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Newport, Caerphilly and Cardiff as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Cwmbran.
Tell us which parts of Torfaen you can reach and we will match you to what is open. There are immediate opportunities for suitable candidates. Call 020 8951 4510 or use the contact form.
