The group is looking for caring and compassionate practitioners to join its Complex Care Service supporting adults with a learning disability.
Care assistants, care practitioners and social care workers within the partnership work as part of a team to support individuals with learning disabilities and intense support needs in their own home.
They provide positive support, personal care and encouragement to people to make their own choices and decisions in all aspects of their daily lives to live as independently as possible.
These roles are as varied as everyday life, supporting people with a trip to the shops, an activity or day out, a reminder to take medication or providing personal care.
As individuals we are all different as is the care and support required.
So if you are patient, kind and have a supporting nature with desire to help and support adults to live the best life possible, you could make a difference by joining Fife Health and Social Care Partnership.
You will be part of a team who strive to improve lives every day, providing a high standard of care, which is underpinned by the Health and Social Care Standards.
For those with a caring heart, compassion, and a sense of fun, this is a golden opportunity.
It is a chance to make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
