Support Worker roles in Hounslow
Protocol Healthcare Services recruits Support Workers in and around Hounslow 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.
Where you would be based in Hounslow
Work comes up near Hounslow Central, Hounslow West and Isleworth, much of it within reach of West Middlesex University Hospital. Between Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Hounslow Council, most of what we staff around Brentford sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Hounslow Central, Hounslow West and Isleworth one week, Brentford, Chiswick and Feltham the next. If you are based around TW3 or TW4, you are inside the area we cover most heavily.
What the role involves
- ✓ 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
- ✓ 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
Hours, shifts and contracts
Full-time and part-time patterns both work. If Feltham is easier for you to reach than Heston, 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 Heston.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Hounslow Central and Brentford first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
Who we are looking for
- ✓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
- ✓The right to work in the UK
Why people stay with us
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your London shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Hounslow itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Richmond, Ealing and Kingston upon Thames as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Hounslow.
