At Aspris, we believe that all young people deserve the best chance to grow, develop and receive support that prepares them for a bright future. Our Residential Support Workers are crucial in helping us to achieve our vision.
What The Role Looks Like
As a Residential Support Worker, you’ll provide emotional support to our young people and help with day-to-day activities such as getting washed, dressed and out to school. If you are working a shift during the weekend, you will barely be on-site at the home because the fun is elsewhere think theme parks, bowling alleys, cinemas and zoos. You’ll have so much fun that you’ll almost forget you’re at work.
With the good times will come challenging times, with our homes accommodating young people with autism, learning difficulties, social, emotional and mental health needs. Although our Residential Support Workers tell us that the strong relationships and lasting memories that you create together will more than make up for these challenges. For them, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing a young person overcome difficulties and progress.
Our children’s home is situated between Mildenhall and Lakenheath, in the Forest Heath District which borders onto Cambridgeshire and Norfolk. It’s a 5-bedded home for males and females aged 8 - 18 with emotional, behavioural difficulties and other complex needs associated. The home seeks to provide a safe and understanding ethos in which the young person can be assisted to address their behaviours and to take responsibility for their own actions. The emphasis of the work is by way of intervention and to challenge the inappropriate behaviour through a holistic therapeutic approach.
