Meet Our Client

We are looking for caring, reliable, and compassionate Healthcare Assistants to support a female in her late teens with complex care needs on a 2:1 basis during the day.

The role involves supporting her morning routine at home, as well as providing care before and after she attends her educational setting. She is a happy and content young woman who loves rock music, being around loud sounds, and joining in family music time. She also enjoys spending time in the water, especially in the family’s hot tub, and getting out and about with her family, whether visiting the park or seeing her aunt’s horses.

She is non-verbal and fully dependent on others for all aspects of her care, including mobility, where hoisting is required. Responsibilities include full personal care, specialist bathing, continence care, dressing, moving and handling, PEG feeding and fluids, and supporting her to access the community and enjoy activities she likes.

This is a highly rewarding opportunity for someone who is patient, flexible, and committed to delivering high-quality, person-centred care.

Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.

Our client has requested females only to join their care team.
