Are you a compassionate and experienced carer looking for a rewarding role supporting a vibrant young client?
Due to our service user's ongoing care needs, we are seeking an additional team member to join our experienced and supportive team. As part of the induction process, there will be an initial period of shadowing and shorter shifts to allow you to become familiar with the client and their family before working independently. As the client may require time to build familiarity and confidence with new carers, the initial period of the role will be focused on developing trust, rapport, and a strong foundation for a cohesive and effective care partnership.
Our established team will provide ongoing support throughout your induction, ensuring you feel confident, comfortable, well prepared for the role and to become part of the CCS team.
⬜About the Role
Continuity of Care Services is looking for a compassionate and dedicated Complex Care Assistant to provide one- to- one support for a friendly and sociable young man in his twenties who lives with cerebral palsy and epilepsy. This is a unique opportunity to build a meaningful relationship while supporting him to live an active, fulfilling, and independent life. Our client has a fantastic sense of humour, enjoys meeting new people, and values carers who are patient, understanding, and willing to take the time to get to know him. His interests include football, gaming on his Wii, listening to music, and spending time out in the local community.
The role includes providing support both at home and in the community, including accompanying the client to college on designated days. As his healthcare needs can change, there will also be a period of time when support is required within a hospital setting.
Hospital stays can vary in length, and care requirements during these periods may differ from the client's usual routine. Flexibility and adaptability are therefore important to ensure high-quality, person-centred care is maintained at all times.
