Ascension Social Care Why join us

• Ascension Social Care is committed to meeting supervision standards as set out in Regulation 27 of the Children’s homes regulations 2001 and Ofsted standard 28.
  In practice this means that staff will receive regular formal and informal supervision from their Line Manager. All staff will receive a minimum of one and a half hours’ formal supervision every month. We will work towards this standard being met every three weeks, in line with the Rota pattern or more frequently if necessary.
  All new staff will receive one-week induction training followed by formal supervision sessions every fortnight for their first six months of employment. Bank staff will receive supervision once every eight shifts worked in the home. All supervision will be recorded and signed by both parties and copies kept in a secure place.
  All staff will be required to complete a written record about any concerns they may have.
  The Home Manager will provide direct on-site monitoring and informal supervision to augment formal supervision. The Home Manager will receive supervision from their Line
  Manager on a three-weekly basis.
