About the Role:
Sugarman Health and Wellbeing are looking for Care Assistants to work with our male service user in the Devizes area. We will provide full training and competency assessment & sign off for care assistants to assist with Medicine Management (Administering subcutaneous Injections), Epilepsy, Stroke Monitoring and management, and Type 2 Diabetes. These things, all in all, contribute to major personal challenges for our service users' physical and mental health.
The ideal care assistant to work in this exciting role will be someone who is bubbly, outgoing, enthusiastic, patient and empathetic. The service user likes to engage with his care assistants and chat about his life, so please don't be shy when it comes to talking.
Our service user has accomplished many things in his life, including completing his A Levels and finishing University during the height of his battle with cancer. He has selflessly volunteered to provide support to those less fortunate, but this has become more challenging for him as his health has declined.
We are looking for care assistants who want a long-term career working with the service user, where they can really make a difference to their life. These successful candidates should be able to embody these resilient and empathetic attitudes.
The service user would like to get out into the community; therefore, there will be high levels of manual handling. Being physically fit is an advantage as you will need to push his wheelchair. When accessing the community, our service user will be using his car, so you must be a driver holding a full UK Driving License.
Our service user has a lot to contend with, and sometimes the enormity of what he has had to endure in his life can make him feel very low. By being a proactive carer and researching new and exciting things for him to explore within the local community will benefit not only the carer-service user bond but also improve his mental health and social wellbeing
He has a passion for still-life photography by taking pictures of objects within his surroundings, whilst also having a love for cooking, he would like support from his carers to cook more nutritious meals.
Requirements for the Role:
* Here at Sugarman Health and Wellbeing, we are looking for an outgoing, bubbly candidate who can show their best assets in providing the highest quality of support.
* A minimum of 6 months of professional UK Care experience.
* Complex Care experience preferred, but not a mandatory need.
* To provide the correct compliance documents, including updated Right to Work and original DBS certificate.
