Are you a compassionate, reliable, and experienced Support Worker looking to make a real difference in someone’s life?

We are seeking a dedicated Support Worker to assist a 19-year-old young lady with complex physical and medical needs.

She was later diagnosed with severe global cerebral injury and has Spastic Quadriplegia (four-limb Cerebral Palsy).

She also lives with dystonia, experiences difficulty managing oral secretions, and has a poor swallow reflex, putting her at high risk of chest infections. She is PEG fed, and her parents provide a blended diet through the feeding tube.

Duties include:

*

Providing full personal care and hygiene support

*

PEG feeding (including blended diet management – training will be provided)

*

Supporting chest care and oral secretion management to reduce infection risk

*

Assisting with moving and handling using specialist equipment

*

Administering medications (as per training and guidance)

*

Supporting her emotional wellbeing and communication needs

*

Encouraging engagement in leisure activities

*

Working alongside healthcare professionals to follow detailed care plans

The Ideal Candidate:

*

Experience supporting individuals with complex health and physical disabilities

*

Understanding of Cerebral Palsy, HIE, dystonia, PEG feeding, and chest care

*

Patient, calm, and person-centred approach

*

Physically fit to assist with moving and handling tasks

*

Excellent communication, observation, and teamwork skills

*

Willingness to learn and undertake bespoke training

*

Enhanced DBS (or willingness to complete one)

*

UK driving licence preferred but not essential

We Offer:

*

Ongoing training

*

Supportive and well-structured working environment

*

An opportunity to genuinely improve someone’s quality of life
