Your responsibilities will include personal care, monitoring wellbeing, and helping individuals settle throughout the night. You'll also carry out essential tasks like cleaning, checking food expiry dates, and writing detailed logs to hand over to the day team.
Some people you'll support use wheelchairs or hoists, and others follow a pureed diet, full training is provided so you'll feel confident in every aspect of support. Communication styles vary, so you'll need to be observant and responsive, using gestures, objects of reference, and body language to understand each person's needs.
While the home is quiet at night, your presence is vital. You'll help maintain a calm, safe environment and be ready to respond to any needs that arise.
