Angela Hamlin Health Care Professionals

We are looking for a support worker / carer to join the team around a 18 year old severely disabled & autistic & epileptic teenager with additional health needs. We are looking to find someone who will be happy to do day shifts as well as waking night shifts. This position would be for 26-37.5 hours weekly (this could include 1 or 2 regular waking nights - depending on the applicant). You are legally able to work self-employed with a UTR number. Hourly rate £16 per hour (during induction and training £15). You will have experience working with young people with disabilities or you are studying a health socail care related field (eg Psychology, physio, social work etc). This would suit a student of a related field (eg. Psychology, Nursing, SEN Pedagogy, Physio etc.) You will have to have clear interest in working with disabled and level 3 autistic people. Good english required. You need to be also quite fit to support someone with a physical disability. When you apply - please write a sentence to begin the conversation and let us know why you applied. Then we still need a Cover letter (not AI written) and current CV and 2 references. please have read all of the ad before applying. You need to be able to swim - this is important to him and a must for this job. Only non-smokers / non vapers apply! You like dogs and are not afraid of a friendly dog. You are open to work some weekends (or most weekends if this suits you) and some bank holidays (shared with the team). About the Teen: He is a friendly, non verbal, very autistic young man with severe epilepsy, a movement disorder and additional health needs. He can walk only with support. The young person lives at home with his family. He needs help with all elements of his daily life. Although he does like to be active this is not in an athletic way. During these activities (even while walking) he needs quite a bit of support at all times. He also loves to be entertained - so who ever applies needs to be quite fit and strong and fun but also patient. He often also needs a lot of care as he can have seizures or other heath issues which lead to him needing to spend time in hospital. When he is in hospital he needs more care and patience. You are not afraid to learn care elements like catheterisation and dealing with PEG and Peristeen (ideally you have experience already and other elements of care - otherwise we train you). You need to be following the behaviour plan (ABA) which we would explain to you and you would be required to attend the team meetings with our ABA Consultant and the rest of the experienced team. You are open to accompany the young person on a summer break and support him. And are able to support also some days during the Christmas / New Years Break. You are also flexible enough to be the second person in the house when the parents need to be away for work or travel. Both day and night shifts are available and we want to find applicants who are open to both day and night shifts. Do please not apply if you do not want to cover waking night shifts at all or no day shifts at all. You would be willing to commit for a minimum of 12 months or more. This position is from end of August / start of September. You live in North London and do not have too far to travel. This is a job that could be very fulfilling but it is also complex and would be difficult for someone who has no experience or interest for disability and autism. But it is a chance to learn about autism and disability and how to support a vulnerable person. Please read this ad completely before we discuss the position further. And please write a few sentences explaining why you are interested - so an honest cover letter. It helps to make contact with some explanation for your interst - we get a lot of interest and it is difficult to differentiate who actually has experince and real interest. What’s great about this job: Fantastic training opportunities, with a thorough handover, from long-standing members of staff who know the young person and his family very well. You will be provided with regular training on his health and care needs which include seizure management, catheterisation, bowel and peg management and behavioural support. Regular team meetings with the ABA Consultant. Flexibility around days worked to accommodate studies or other commitments. Not a Care home Job and not similar at all. This position is very different from a care home position. About the Job: Hourly rate £15 p/h during 3 month training and probation (full probation is 6 months) - hourly rate then rises to £16 and after one year to £17 per hour. Part time & Full time available : Part time :26 -30 hr Full time: 37.5 hours + (please let us know you availability in your cover letter). There are always extra bank hours additionally available (when team members are on holiday) if you needed more hours. This will ideally be your only job next to studies. Or if full time - it needs to be your only job. We can unfortunately not offer a Sponsorship Visa. Also let us initially know your availability and if you are interested in part or full time. Later on we will need 2 relevant recent references and a valid DBS.
