The Role

At the organisation, the children and young adults they support have complex disabilities — but that never defines them. Their colleagues play a vital role in helping them live rich, supported lives and that includes overnight.

* Delivering safe, person-centred care with dignity and respect
* Using specialist equipment like hoists, beds and mobility aids (full training provided)
* Helping with medication, feeding (including gastrostomy), and personal care
* Monitoring wellbeing throughout the night and recording notes

* Sunrise: 2:00am - 7:30am

Skills and Qualifications

* A caring, compassionate approach with the ability to stay calm and focused overnight
* Respect for individuality and a positive approach to disability and diversity
* Confidence in working with children and young adults — or a willingness to learn
* GCSE-level English and Maths (or equivalent)
* Willingness to undertake training, including Health & Social Care Level 3
* Availability to work a rota including weekends and public holidays

Desirable:

* Experience supporting people with disabilities or complex health needs
