MEET THE PERSON YOU’LL BE SUPPORTING

• What challenges do I have? I have autism and physical disabilities, so I use a wheelchair and other physical aids to move around.
• What are my aspirations? I love all the activities I do as part of my regular routines, and I am looking for new, engaging support workers to help me to continue to get out into the community.
• What sorts of people do I get on with? I love to be engaged, in all sorts of different ways - no matter what we are doing - if you’re having fun, I’m having fun.
• What activities do I do? I have a vehicle which staff can use to take me to my regular activities, such as a local disco, swimming classes,
• How would I describe myself? I am caring, energetic, and fun to spend time with. I can also get anxious quite quickly, and when this happens I can present behaviours that challenge.

OUR COMPANY STRONGLY VALUES INTERNAL PROGRESSION, FOSTERING A CULTURE WHERE OUR TEAM ARE EMPOWERED TO GROW, DEVELOP THEIR SKILLS, AND ADVANCE THEIR CAREERS. HEAR FROM SOME OF OUR CURRENT STAFF MEMBERS WHO HAVE CLIMBED THE CAREER LADDER IN CARE:

Jo Watson, Senior Complex Care Case Officer: “After working in infection control and rehab settings, I joined Amore as a Support Worker to provide 1-1 care for a gentleman with complex care needs, including autism and learning disabilities. It was a bit daunting at first, but the feedback you get and the support you receive from your co-workers and managers really helps you settle down. After a while, an opportunity arose where I was asked if I wanted to be a Senior Complex Care Case Officer I threw my name into the ring and here I am! It’s very different from 1-1 care, since I’m surrounded by people. We have so many departments within the building, but it’s not compartmentalised. We’re all together and one big family!”
