Meet Our Client
Our client is a lovely lady in her 20's who enjoys a range of activities to fill her day.

You will role will involve providing personal care and managing her clinical interventions throughout the day, as well as overnight monitoring to ensure her comfort and safety. You will also participate in daily activities that she enjoys, encouraging her engagement.
