The Services provide care support to vulnerable adults either within their own homes or within Residential settings.

Casual Trainers will be required to deliver training on moving and handling medication and safeguarding to new staff and to existing staff as refresher sessions.

You must be able to provide at least 12 training sessions a year this should be either at the Civic Offices in Grays Collins House Residential Home in Corringham or one of our other sites across the borough so willingness to travel around the borough is essential.
