About Community Integrated Care
Community Integrated Care is one of the UK’s largest health and social care charities. We transform lives by delivering high-quality, person-centred support that fosters independence and empowerment.

Our charity was founded in 1988 and we were one of the pioneers of the ‘Care in the Community’ agenda, enabling people to move out of long-stay institutions and live more fulfilling lives.

Since then, we’ve remained leaders in social care, providing bespoke support to thousands across the UK. Today, we support more than 2,600 people and employ 6,600 caring and committed colleagues across England and Scotland.

We have a proud history of breaking boundaries and are always looking for new ways to make a positive difference through bold ideas, innovative projects and impactful partnerships.

Who you’ll be supporting & more about the role
At our Thurso service, we support a gentleman to live as independently as possible in his own home and are looking for a Support Worker to join our team.

We provide support 7 days a week, so we're ideally looking for someone with some flexibility to work different days. We have a 15 hour contract plus sleepovers available.

A Manual UK driving license is required as the person we support has a mobility vehicle.

In this team, you’ll support this gentleman to live the best life possible by supporting him to go swimming, go to the gym, visit the cinema, enjoy a wee dance and go on holiday, among his many other hobbies and interests.

In this role, you can also expect to provide support with:

• Medication administration
• Cooking and home maintenance
• Personal care
• Finance management

Shift pattern
Our shifts are from 8.30am to 8.30am the next day, with a sleepover in between. This is a preference of the individual we support so the successful candidate must be available to work this shift pattern.
