Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

5/5
My role as an adult are worker is to support 3 young adult to live as independent as possible. Ensuring their safety, promoting their independence and making them feel heard.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5
It was very interesting and I was well supported by my manager, Christine Why. It motivated me to enroll on level 3 which I’m currently progressing well on.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5
I’ve built confidence in supporting the individuals in my care and also working in collaboration with my team. Self awareness, reflection and emotional resilience keeps me going. I used to take feedback negatively but since completing my level 2, I realised that it’s mostly focused on growth and positivity.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

4/5
Level 3 is a bit disorganised as there are really short staff and not attending to students work. It’s discouraging.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5
I’m fully supported at my work place. Each week I get 6hours time study at work.

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

3/5
Great in my level 2 but currently in level 3 it’s hard I must say. They admitted to being short staff.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

5/5
It’s helped me so far with safeguarding, self safety and health and safety.

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

2/5
No
