Staff
Salter’s Hill has a dedicated and experienced staff team who share the common goal of providing quality support for all who use our services.
Each staff member receives a comprehensive internal Induction in conjunction with the Common Induction Standards. During their probation staff will also complete all the necessary mandatory training.
They will then progress to the new Qualification & Credit Framework (QCF) qualifications which enables them to further their knowledge in areas specific to the service they provide.
In addition, the organisation provides a range of training opportunities to ensure that staff are competent and confident in the area of their work.
To meet the individual needs of people receiving care and support, staff are both flexible and adaptable to a variety of situations. Individuals we support benefit from local staff with local knowledge, experience and contacts, all of which contributes to an environment where people are able to develop as individuals as well as members of their local community.
The role demands a variety of skills and qualities. It may include supporting individuals with:
-
Personal care and support
-
Emotional support
-
Practical help in relation to housing, tenancy agreements, support with finances, budgeting.
-
Support to run a home …domestic tasks
-

-
Volunteering and employment opportunities
The Creative Learning service is run by facilitators experienced in working with people with learning disabilities, and have specific skills in Craft, Woodwork, land management, gardening, numeracy and literacy, etc.
In each service the staff are supported by a number of volunteers who bring a wealth of expertise and experience to the team – see “How you can Help” – “By Volunteering” page.
