Meet Our Client
We are looking for compassionate and reliable healthcare assistants to provide 1:1 support overnight for a young girl with complex health needs.

This includes monitoring her wellbeing, carrying out routine care tasks, administering medication and ensuring her airway remains safe. Your role is not only to meet her physical and emotional needs but also collaborate with her family, forming part of her extended support network.
