Support and care worker

Based in Radstock, Somerset, Priory Radstock offers residential support for 11 autistic males and females. We are situated on a main road, in the local town of Radstock.
We provide residential support, 24 hours a day, in an environment that has open living communal spaces and separate living facilities. We support our residents to access the community and live as independent a life as possible, in the least restrictive way, using a positive behaviour support (PBS) approach.
You’ll be part of a dedicated and compassionate team, all working together to ensure the smooth running of the service and to support the wellbeing of our residents. While your role doesn’t involve providing direct care, your contribution is vital in helping to maintain a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for everyone. Whether you're assisting with day-to-day operations, keeping things organised, or ensuring our spaces are well looked after, your support plays an important part in creating a positive experience for those who live and work here.
Your natural empathy will help you support others through both the highs and lows.
You will be well supported with regular career conversations. We also offer full training and numerous pathways into leadership and qualified clinical positions to help you shape your career with us.
