Are you a compassionate team player committed to promoting excellence, shared learning, respect, and kindness within a supportive care environment?

Do you have strong communication skills and the resilience to work in a secure male-only setting supporting individuals with acquired brain injury and mental illness? If so, we’d love to hear from you.

Our residential care home in Co. Meath is a medium secure unit that provides 24/7 support for up to three male service users with acquired brain injury and complex mental health needs. Our goal is to create a safe, therapeutic, and structured environment that promotes recovery, personal growth, and independence.

About the Role

You will work as a Support Worker within a committed multidisciplinary team, supporting service users to develop daily living skills, confidence, and independence. This role plays a crucial part in helping individuals transition toward more independent living or community integration, where appropriate.

Key Responsibilities

Deliver person-centred support in line with individual care and rehabilitation plans.
Promote positive behaviour and emotional well-being.
Encourage and support access to meaningful activities and community involvement.
Work collaboratively with colleagues to ensure a consistent, safe, and nurturing environment.

Maintain accurate and up-to-date records in accordance with policies and regulatory requirements.

Working Hours

This is a 24/7 service and you will be required to work 12-hour shifts, including days, nights, weekends, and bank holidays on a rota basis.

What We’re Looking For

Compassion, resilience, and a positive attitude.
Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
Experience working in mental health, neurorehabilitation, or a similar care environment is desirable but not essential.

Commitment to continuous learning and improvement.

What We Offer
Full training and ongoing professional development.
Supportive team environment.
Career progression opportunities.

The opportunity to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives every day.

This role is both challenging and incredibly rewarding — the progress you help someone achieve today could be life-changing tomorrow.

If you have the aspiration, capability, and dedication, we’ll provide the support and opportunities to help you thrive.
