Why This Role Is Different
This isn't a juggling act. You'll work consistently in one
location with the same client and the same team. That means genuine continuity,
real relationships, and the time to truly understand your client's needs.
Our client is a young person who loves music, nursery
rhymes, cartoons like Peppa Pig and Cocomelon, being read to, and trips to the
cinema. We're looking for carers who are warm, patient, engaging and don't
mind joining in with the occasional singalong.
The Role
You'll be part of a 2:1 care team in the client's home. An
experienced Complex Care Assistant will lead on the clinical aspects of care,
while you provide dedicated support with daily living activities, moving and
handling, and ensuring the client remains safe, comfortable, and happy.
