We have an amazing opportunity for a Supported Living Worker to join our fab and supportive team. Our fantastic CQC registered service provides support to our brilliant customers. Natalie House is a residential care home in the centre of Southampton offering 24-hour support for people with mental health diagnoses.

We provide person centred support to customers for one year enabling them to learn and develop life skills and manage their individual person-centred recovery within an accommodation support setting they live in.

The aim is for residents to move on to more independent living with ongoing four-week tailored support from the team. Natalie House adopts a whole-person approach in new models of care and is leading the way for future recovery services.

You’ll support our customers to live their day to day lives as independently as possible. The team will tell you that no two days are ever the same because everything we do is “person centred” around our customers. You might help with personal care (like bathing and issuing medication) in the morning and supporting them to attend college in the afternoon. We even help customers to go on holiday!

This job is so rewarding, you’ll go home each day knowing that you’ve made an amazing difference to vulnerable people’s lives.
