Waking Night Support Worker “A well-spent day brings happy sleep” Leonardo da Vinci

As a Waking Night Support Worker, your main aim is to make sure people feel safe, comfortable and able to sleep. As you head for home after your shift, people should be waking up feeling well-rested, ready for whatever activities they have planned for the day.

As well as helping people sleep well, Waking Night Support Workers support their team by completing various practical duties which helps the team maintain high standards of cleanliness and homeliness – often those that may be impractical or difficult to complete during busier times of day. Some administrative tasks are also completed, for example logging activities and events overnight to help inform and improve the care and support provided by the team.

As a waking night support worker you will be a key member of the team, providing high standards of person centred support throughout the night. You will be the main point of contact on shift between the hours of 2200-0800.

You’re empathetic, resilient, and deeply committed to assisting people with additional needs who can present challenging behaviour.

You’re able to communicate clearly and sensitively with vulnerable people and their families, and always adopt a person-centred approach.

You will love it because…

You enjoy promoting independence, providing reassurance, and enabling confidence. You take pride in doing a great job and are happy assisting with domestic duties, cooking, personal care, attending appointments and social activities.
