About us

Meet Our Client
We are currently supporting a bright and engaging boy in his early teens with complex health needs and are looking for experienced Health Care Assistants to join his dedicated 2:1 care team.
He is non-verbal and non-mobile and requires full support throughout the night, including close monitoring and management of his clinical needs.
He enjoys Disney films (especially The Lion King and Toy Story), musical and interactive toys, messy play such as foam and slime, and outings to the cinema and bowling. He’s also a big Wolves fan and enjoys spending time with animals.
He lives at home with his parents, siblings and two friendly dogs, so Health Care Assistants should be comfortable working in a family home and pet-friendly environment.

What You’ll Need
8. At least 3 months’ hands-on care experience, including respiratory care, oxygen support, and epilepsy management with rescue medication
9. Confidence working with children with complex care needs
10. Experience administering medication, supporting personal care, and carrying out safe moving and handling

14. Regular confirmed rotas and flexible scheduling
