Join Our Team and Earn a £400 Bonus! £150 paid training + £250 after probation We are supporting a young medical student (early 20s) who sustained a high-level spinal cord injury while on holiday from university. He is exceptionally bright, articulate, and determined to return to his studies and live as independently as possible. Despite everything he has been through, he has a positive, driven mindset and is fully engaged in his care and future. He lives in a fully adapted family home in Oxfordshire with a specialist care setup and strong family support. He is also one of a very small number of people in the UK to have a Neuralink implant, allowing him to control his laptop purely through thought. It is an incredible piece of technology and a fascinating environment to work in. This is a highly engaging and meaningful package, where you will build a genuine relationship and play a key role in supporting his long-term goals. This is a high-acuity package requiring confident critical care nurses: • Fully ventilated via tracheostomy, • Complex airway clearance and respiratory support, • Autonomic dysreflexia risk and blood pressure instability, • Periods where the client may not be able to communicate changes in condition This means: • Observation and clinical judgement are critical, • Early recognition of deterioration is essential, • You must be confident working independently This is not routine care — it requires ICU-level thinking in a 1:1 setting. • 24/7 package, • 2:1 care at all times:, • 1 x Critical Care RN, • 1 x Complex HCA You will be part of a small, consistent team, ensuring continuity and high-quality care. 20:00–08:00 Pattern C Week 1: Mon, Tue, Fri, Sat Week 2: Wed, Thu, Sun Week 3: Mon, Tue, Fri, Sat Week 4: Wed, Thu, Sun Pattern D Week 1: Wed, Thu, Sun Week 2: Mon, Tue, Fri, Sat Week 3: Wed, Thu, Sun Week 4: Mon, Tue, Fri, Sat • 3–4 shifts per week, • Fully predictable rota To maintain a safe and well-run package: • Occasional flexibility to support alternative shifts, including days if needed, • Cross-over shifts for supervision, clinical oversight, and team consistency, • Supporting sickness and annual leave cover where possible As this is a small specialist team, we do need some flexibility so that night staff remain connected to the wider team and we can safely cover the rota when required. • £40.60/hr Paragon is a specialist complex care provider, working in partnership with organisations such as the Spinal Injuries Association (SIA). We are known for: • Delivering high-acuity care safely in the community, • Strong clinical governance and Nurse Practitioner support, • Building stable, high-quality care teams This is exactly the kind of package where that specialist support matters — getting the right team, structure, and oversight in place from the start. • NMC Registered Nurse, • Current ICU / Critical Care experience (essential), • Confident managing ventilated patients, • Calm, observant, and clinically decisive, • Nurses who value consistency, teamwork, and high standards of care This role would particularly suit ICU nurses who prefer nights or want fixed night work alongside hospital shifts, while remaining in a highly clinical and rewarding environment. • ICU-level care in a 1:1 setting, • Work with a highly motivated young person, • Be part of a package that genuinely makes a difference, • Join a specialist provider committed to doing complex care properly Please state Pattern C or D when applying. #J-18808-Ljbffr
