About The Role

You’ll be working mainly in my family home, helping me with all aspects of daily living, keeping track of medical supplies, and planning activities I enjoy. I need 2:1 care 24/7, so you’ll always be working alongside another team member. You might even get to come on holiday with me!

A heads-up: I live with a cat, who lives in the main part of the house.

• Awareness of emotional, behavioural, and cognitive needs
• Willingness to learn and grow with on-the-job and professional training
