Support Worker roles in Harrow
If you want Support Worker work in Harrow, Protocol Healthcare Services recruits for supported living, mental health and learning disability services, on both temporary and permanent contracts.
Where you would be based in Harrow
Northwick Park Hospital anchors a good deal of the health provision around Harrow-on-the-Hill and Wealdstone, and the settings we recruit for sit close to it. Harrow Council commissions much of the care in the area, and London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust runs the clinical side.
We fill posts in Harrow-on-the-Hill, Wealdstone, North Harrow and South Harrow and out towards West Harrow, Rayners Lane and Kenton. HA1, HA2, HA3 and HA5 come up most often, and work extends through London.
What the role involves
- ✓ Encouraging independence, choice and everyday decision making
- ✓ 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
Hours, shifts and contracts
You set your availability. Plenty of the people we place around West Harrow work three or four shifts and keep the rest of the week their own. Most people settle into a handful of regular services, often within a few miles of North Harrow.
Agency and permanent are both on offer. Picking up shifts in two or three services around Wealdstone is a low-risk way to find out where you want to be.
Who we are looking for
- ✓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
