Experienced carers only - Evening SITTING position- £600pm (9pm-7am). We are looking for someone with experience of caring for a relative or from a care agency. My father has dementia but he is mobile and already has carers in the daytime. We are looking for someone who can “sit” with him during bedtime hours to keep an eye on our father during the night, if he gets up to use the toilet. This varies day to day. Sometimes he doesn’t get up at all. Other times it’s 2-3 times. The person will need to escort him into the bathroom and stand by the door to ensure he does not get dizzy. You will then need to escort him back to bed. My father is able to clean himself and wash his hands. If he’s hungry or thirsty he may ask for Tea and a snack. You can help him make this and then settle him back to bed. There will be an alarm set up in his bedroom which will wake you up if he gets up from the bed. This position is suitable for a mature carer or mature student who needs extra pocket money and is perhaps busy in the daytime at a care agency or at university. Please only apply with the below criteria - Experience of caring for someone (will need to x2 provide references) - Kind, empathetic person - Someone who speaks clear English - Someone who can prepare basic food - Someone who is tidy and clean - Speaking Hindi or Urdu with English preferable - Someone who can drive is preferred

We are looking for a support worker / Carer to join the team around an 18 year old severely autistic & epileptic teenager with additional health needs. He lives at home with his family. He has 24 hour 1:1 support and for some activities 2:1 (like visiting the pool, special needs bike club, visiting the park or visiting shops and cafes). About the Teen: He is a friendly, non verbal, very autistic boy with severe epilepsy, a movement disorder and additional health needs. He is non verbal and can walk only with support. He needs help with all elements of his daily life. He does like to be active (but not in an athletic way) and he loves to be entertained. He likes to be spoken to even though communication is very difficult for him. But he also often also needs a lot of care as he can have seizures or other health issues which lead to him needing to spend time in hospital. His team of support workers / carers help him with his daily life & routine which includes supporting and facilitating access to activities and community, help him with learning more self help skills and communication, all of his personal care, help with his laundry and keep his environment clean & tidy. About you: This job will suit someone with good experience supporting a young person with disability and autism and has a real interest in disability and autism. 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). But this is not just about care but also very much about support and we would like to find someone who can be active, fun and shows initiative. You need to be following the behaviour plan which would explain to you. This could potentially suit a student of a related field as a part time position (but a full time position is also available). You need to be able to swim - this is important to him. Ideally you are a non-smoker / non vaper. You are open to work some weekends and some bank holidays (shared with the team) and also take on some waking night supports. Both day and night shifts are available and we would prefer applicants who are open to both day and night shifts. Ideally you would be willing to commit for a minimum of 12 months or more. This is needed as a lot of training is involved as well. This is a job that could be very fulfilling and is well paid but it is also complex and would be difficult for someone who has no experience with disability. Please read this full ad before we discuss the position further. 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 and peg management, peristeen and behavioural support. Regular team meetings with the ABA Consultant. Flexibility around days worked to accommodate studies or other commitments. About the Job: Hourly rate £15 p/h and which rises to £16 after 6 months of probation. Part time position - minimum of 24 hours +. (unfortunately 20 hours is not enough for this position). Full time position 35 hours +. Indicate if you are interested in Full time or Part time when you contact us. This position could be on a freelance basis with a UTR number (if you are part time and also if you are a student) otherwise there could be a full time contract with a care agency that supports the teenager. (we can not offer a Sponsorship Visa). If interested: If you are interested please apply and already initially let us know why you would be suitable in your first message. We get so many applications please help to make it easier and explain why you applied. We will then let you know where to send your CV and a relevant cover letter explaining your interest and suitability (a few sentences might be enough to get the point across (ideally written by you and not AI).
