Who you’ll be supporting & more about the role:
I am a gentleman in my 60s and I live in my own flat. Things that I find challenging are my epilepsy, my mobility issues. I get support from the staff to live independently as I’m diagnoses with a Learning disability.
Due to my Epilepsy being extreme, the staff need to be able to support me through seizures and also be Buccal midazolam trained, as I may need this medication administrating during a particularly bad seizure.
I am very proud that I am able to live in my own flat, I have cactus’ that I care for and ensure they have water, but not too much!
I enjoy gardening with the staff, watching tv, when I do this though I like to be on my own to watch TV in the quiet.
Its important that the staff support me with my mobility as I am unsteady on my feet.
My aspiration is to go on holiday somewhere nice.
I have a regular team that support me throughout each day and night, I have the support of one person each shift. The staff are a mix of male and female staff and they work 07.00-22.00 and a sleep night just in case I need support during the night.
I need the staff to be Buccal trained and cushion lite training
