Meet Our Client

We are looking for compassionate and reliable healthcare assistants to provide 1:1 support overnight for a young girl with complex health needs. She finds comfort in being spoken to and engages through facial expressions, which helps indicate changes in her clinical needs. Building this connection is an important part of her care ensuring she feels safe and supported throughout the night.

You will work closely with her through the night, providing comfort, reassurance, and support with her clinical care. This includes monitoring her wellbeing, carrying out routine care tasks, administering medication and ensuring her airway remains safe.

Your role is not only to meet her physical and emotional needs but also collaborate with her family, forming part of her extended support network.

Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.

Our client has specifically requested female care staff to join their team.

“This isn't just a job – it’s your opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life.”

What You’ll Need

  • 3 months’ care experience
  • Confident with medication, personal care, moving and handling
  • Clear communication skills

What We Offer

  • Competitive hourly pay with enhancements for nights and weekends
  • Regular confirmed rotas and flexible scheduling
  • Reward & recognition programme
  • Supportive management and 24/7 on-call support
  • Opportunity to grow within a values-led, national care provider

Our funded training, including clinical skills, comes at no cost to you, though attendance is unpaid.
