About our services in adult social care
Adult social care has a wide range of services and support and as a result a variety of job roles.
This can include working in our;

- Occupational Therapy and Equipment Services – Our qualified Occupational Therapists and OT Assistants aim to enhance people’s ability to live safely and independently in their homes by providing equipment and adaptations to their homes and therapy support to enhance their mobility
- Internally Provided Services – support workers play a key role in this service where we provide direct support to people enabling those in most need to live independent and fulfilled lives with dignity and grace
- Business Systems - we manage Commissioned Services and some of the largest expenditure in the Council enabling external adult care providers to support our local residents within our adult social care services.
This is an exciting time to join us as we work to put adults and their carers at the heart of everything we do.
Our support and care staff are key in helping people live their best lives in or with care provision.
Our qualified staff including social workers, occupational therapists and social care professionals are also committed to achieving the best outcomes for adults and their carers.
In doing so, we will help you make a difference with the help of a supportive staff network, training and development opportunities including specialist training, manageable caseloads, high-quality professional support, supervision and guidance and excellent progression opportunities.
