Are you a nurturing and dedicated individual who thrives from supporting and working with children?

If you are looking for a rewarding new role within healthcare, you are in the right place

Working in healthcare can be incredibly fulfilling as it allows you to make a positive impact on people's lives every day.

We are looking for experienced and committed Healthcare Assistants with an interactive approach, who are eager to enhance their skills in the complex care sector. While prior complex care experience is beneficial, it is not a requirement as full bespoke clinical training will be provided.

She is a happy and content little girl who thrives on interaction with her family and care team, particularly when engaging in playtime activities. She loves to play with musical toys, enjoys listening to music and watching cartoons on TV, especially Mr. Bean.

Main duties of the job

Throughout the day you will ensure all her care needs are met, providing support with her personal care, moving and handling, being vigilant to her care needs and attending to her clinical care needs when required. You will engage through play, promote her learning and development, and ensure she has the right tools to thrive and grow.

Throughout the night you will provide support with her personal care, repositioning, being vigilant to her care needs, make clinical observations and attending to her clinical care needs when required. You will provide a peaceful environment, offering comfort and reassurance when needed to promote a restful nights sleep.
