ABOUT THE ROLE

I am a young man with physical disabilities, learning disabilities and severe epilepsy. I live at home with my family in the Newark area of Nottinghamshire. I am looking for caring individuals to join my current team, supporting me with my care needs throughout the day and night. You will be required to assist me with all aspects of personal care, including PEG feeding, care and administering medication, moving & handling, ventilation and suctioning tasks.

ABOUT YOU

You will be joining my established team, who support me with 2:1 support 24/7. You need to be positive, enthusiastic, caring and patient, and have experience in supporting individuals with a learning disability. You will be a strong communicator, trustworthy, respectful, a team player, and possess a genuine commitment to the role. We must get on well, as companionship is a key element to this role. Experience working with someone with complex needs and supporting them in their own home is desired but not essential, as comprehensive training will be given. Flexibility of working hours is important to meet my needs, and will include covering weekends, bank holidays, staff holidays and sickness as required.

BENEFITS

In return for your dedication, you’ll receive a competitive rate of pay in addition to: 

5.6 weeks holiday per year (pro-rata for part-time positions).

Company pension scheme after 3 months’ service, subject to the scheme rules. 

Opportunity to join our Cash Back Health Plan, after successful completion of the probation period.

Free training and development for all roles. 

Access to wellbeing and support tools.
