Month: March 2017

Over 700,000 people in the UK live with autism. Add their families to that number and we can begin to see that autism touches a huge number of people, whether in your family, amongst friends or in the workplace. Wirral and Liverpool based Lavoro Care support Autism Awareness and are keen to help The National Autistic Society increase people’s awareness of autism, not only in the home, but in the workplace too.

Lavoro Care, based in Wirral, supply trained Support Workers to Adult Care Services across the region. Their Support Workers regularly encounter autism and are fully supportive of the campaign to make more people understand, learn about the challenges, features, characteristics, reality and to more readily accept those living with autism.

The National Autistic Society have launched a “Too Much Information” campaign which was created to help everyone understand autism. Some key points they highlight are:

• 99% of the public have heard of autism
• Only 16% of autistic people feel that the public understands them
• 50% of autistic people feel unable to leave the house
• 28% of autistic people have been asked to leave a public place

Do you have experience of working with ASD? Are you looking for a more rewarding career? There is a shortage of trained Support Workers and Lavoro Care are looking to recruit new Workers across, Wirral, Liverpool, Merseyside, Cheshire, Warrington, Wrexham, North Wales and across the North West.

If you have experience and meet our high standards we are looking to recruit people with the following:

• Experienced Support/Care Workers looking for a new challenge
• Experience in the Health and Social Care industry
• Qualified Health and Social Care workers
• Students studying or with relevant qualifications, preferably with placement experience

Full training will be given to all successful applicants in order to match Service Users and Support Workers correctly, backed up by a first-class admistration and support team.

Do you have a background in Children’s Residential Services? Is your background in working with children? Have you worked in the Care Services Industry before? Are you QCF level 3 qualified in Children and Young People Care (formerly NVQ level 3)? Are you looking for a new, challenging career?

Lavoro Care are looking to recruit new workers to their Children’s Services Teams across Cheshire, Merseyside, Wirral, Lancashire and Stoke. They are urgently looking for recruits in North Wales, Flint and Denbighshire, Wrexham and Oswestry.

Could you work in Children’s Residential Services? Or if you’re looking for a change, then contact Lavoro Care now.

Children’s Residential Services provide support and protection for vulnerable children and youths. Many young people struggle with their general wellbeing, health, education and social existence, often due to external influences beyond the child’s control. These Young People (YP’s) will have their specific needs assessed and a support package will be put in place. In most cases a Child or Youth Worker will work with the YP, offering support, direction and protection as identified in the support package required.

Residential Child Care Workers (RCWS), have an incredibly varied role and can often work in challenging environments, often where the individuals have been removed from their homes and are placed into care. An RCWS will be based in homes, specifically for children that cannot live with their own family. This provides a safe environment that allows the children to grow, learn and develop in a caring environment, detailed by a specific Care Plan.

Lavoro Care are looking to recruit new Residential Child Care Workers to join their team, as they are a specialist Health and Social Care agency, supplying trained Workers to Children’s Residential Services across the region. There is a high demand for RCWS and recruitment is taking place now to meet this demand.

To meet the specific demands of the roles, Lavoro Care are looking to recruit people with the following qualities:

• Experienced Children’s Residential Services Workers/Care Workers looking for a new challenge
• Minimum 6 months paid experience in the Health and Social Care industry
• Qualified Children’s Services workers (QCF level, Level 5 Leadership and Management)
• Applicants over the age of 22 years-old
• Available for overnight stays

Applicants may be subject to Disclosure and Baring Service Checks (DBS)

Lavoro Care take exceptional care in recruiting and matching the RCWS with the Young People and will ensure that appropriate, suitable and specific training is provided before placement. With an excellent administration and support team, Lavoro Care “do care” and continually strive to be ahead of and set the standards in our sector.

If you would like a new opportunity in Children’s Residential Services, or would like to meet the team to discuss your options, then please make contact and send us your CV.
