Client/Child:
Rose is 14 years old and the heart of a loving and supportive family; Mum, Dad, and younger brother (9). Rose is an engaging, sweet, and happy young lady with a love for music, arts and crafts, cooking, listening to stories, and loud engaging activities. Rose sustained a brain injury at birth and as a result, is fully dependent on 2:1 support around the clock. Rose has cerebral palsy, epilepsy, a tracheostomy, requires suctioning, a GJ tube (medication, nutrition, and fluid), and a visual impairment. Rose uses her eyes to communicate and can make her likes and dislikes known. Rose has a complex care team in place providing round-the-clock support, is home-schooled, and her house is fully adapted to meet all her needs.
Overview of Role: The complex care support worker will work alongside another team member providing the highest standard of care and support to Rose, tending to all her health, care, and medical needs. This will include personal care, administering medication, preparing feeds, manual handling, implementing therapy, arranging activities (indoors and outdoors), updating her care plan and records, and working in collaboration with Rose’s parents, medical professionals, and the MDT. On Friday, you will support Rose during her home school session and follow her planned routine on weekends. Rose is keen to have the right person join her team; therefore, we can consider a job share, or if you are seeking additional working hours, we may be able to accommodate this.
Who This Job Would Suit: This is a busy family home, and Rose’s team works like a well-oiled machine. It is essential that you are reliable, a team player, dedicated, and can commit to the position for a minimum of 12 months. For this position, it is imperative that you have previously supported a child/teen with complex care needs such as tube feeding, epilepsy, and suctioning. Training is provided; however, you must have the basic skill set in these areas. Non-smokers/vapers only.
What’s Great About This Job: Competitive pay rates, excellent training, and opportunity to upskill, paid annual leave, and contracted permanent hours. Working as part of a great team and in a lovely working environment. Rose is a real pleasure to support and work with; she will brighten up your day and you will be making a real difference in this young person’s life.
