Overview

Lead Adult Care Workers make a positive difference to an individual’s life, when that person is faced with physical, practical, social, emotional or intellectual challenges.

A Lead Adult Care Worker is expected to exercise judgement and take appropriate action to support individuals to maintain their independence, dignity and control. By providing leadership, guidance and direction at the frontline of care delivery, the Lead Adult Care Worker will be instrumental in improving the health and wellbeing of those receiving care and support.

Lead Adult Care Workers may work in residential or nursing homes, domiciliary care, day centres or some clinical healthcare settings. As well as covering Lead Adult Care Workers this standard also covers Lead Personal Assistants who can work at this senior level, but they may only work directly for one individual who needs support and/or care services, usually within their own home.
