About the Client & Your Responsibilities
Our client is an active man in his 30s who sustained a severe traumatic brain injury when he was a teenager. He has made excellent progress with his recovery and has full capacity. While he can perform tasks around his home independently, he requires some support in daily activities such as shopping, cooking, organisation, and accessing the community. There is no personal care involved or any moving and handling.
Lunch and dinner are provided while on shift and you will prepare meals with our client and eat together. Our client is fond of cooking and eating good quality food, so a shared interest in this would be beneficial. You will accompany/support our client to social outings including gigs and restaurants which are paid for. There will also be a need for some of our client’s care team to accompany him on holidays in the UK and abroad.
