Reablement Worker

Our Reablement Team aims to maximise the independence of people who are struggling with activities of daily living due to injury or illness. This in turn helps to prevent or reduce the need for ongoing support or residential care, by supporting people to remain safe and independent in their own homes for as long as possible.

Reablement Workers complete daily visits to service users; helping them with personal and domestic care activities in ways which always encourage their ability to do as much for themselves as they can.

The work is rewarding and stimulating with ongoing training and skills development.
