Full job description
SOL Connect is an Award Winning Technology Enable Care Specialist based in Central Scotland who offer advanced remote support to individuals.
Please Note – We are unable to offer sponsorship at this time.
Our technology allows us to provide person centred support in a creative way using bespoke care package using the very latest technology as well as providing a one to one response at night when required. We work in partnership with individuals and social care providers to support individuals when their support workers are not present through our team of experienced practitioners who are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
We currently have a vacancy for a Relief Overnight Female Responder to join our teams covering Wishaw and Glasgow.

You will respond to individuals who need assistance during the night for:
- Alarm Activations
- Personal Care Requests
- Emergency Support out with normal support hours
- Technical Support
- Support following falls
- To safeguard an individual’s welfare and wellbeing.
The responder role requires someone who can think on their feet and provide a speedy, efficient and appropriate response in what can be a fast paced role with no two nights the same. As you will be responding to individuals who are in their own homes it is essential that you are able to drive but a car is provided for the hours during your shift.
We are looking for individuals who share our values: –

Find the joy in the ordinary – are able to appreciate the small things and able to value and see small goals as achievements
Look at the world from a different perspective – seeing the world through someone else’s eyes, listen to what’s not being said and learning new ways to communicate with people
Make a difference – be everything from a gym buddy to singing along with someone’s favourite song, musician to film buff. Encourage the person you support to do the things they love and encourage them to try new activities.
Take responsibility – be responsible and take ownership of decisions, speak up and make suggestions to better peoples like.
