Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?
Personal Assistants have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone with a learning disability to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!
Each person we support has different needs, so your role as Personal Assistant may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.
Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.
The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me
The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.
You will be working as part of a team in Largs of Personal Assistants supporting people in their new homes for a community of adults who have a range of support needs. There are 22 houses in this complex and each person receives the individualised support they need. Some people will require essential support and maintaining their home, others will require support with accessing the local and wider community - or a combination.
Staff are on site 24 hours per day to provide support when required and there are a variety of shifts available. You will be provided with any training required.

Let us introduce you to some of the people we support:
We have 22 residents in Largs. Some of the residents have tremendous social lives and enjoy weekly visits to the Disco, Bowling, Swim Clubs and going to the local pub to watch the football or to have a few games of pool.
