Meet Our Client

We are looking for caring and compassionate Healthcare Assistants to support a child who lives at home with her family and siblings in Sheffield.

She has a playful personality and enjoys being around others, especially when she is included in fun activities. She loves being pampered, listening to music, watching her favourite cartoons, and relaxing with her sensory blankets, which help her feel calm and comforted.

Care staff will provide full 2:1 support during the day, assisting with all aspects of personal care, moving and handling, and clinical interventions. This includes oral suctioning, tracheostomy care, ventilation management, and the administration of medication and nutrition via PEG feeding.

For candidates seeking additional hours, we can also offer further shifts during the day supporting another client based in Sheffield.

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 female carers only
