Meet Our Client
We are supporting a new package of care in Gerrards Cross (SL9), caring for a bright and resilient 9-year-old girl with cerebral palsy, who lives at home with her parents and siblings. She loves sensory play and has her own sensory room. She also enjoys being read to, singing nursery rhymes, playing interactive games and using her iPad and other assistive technology.
She requires 2:1 support both during the day and overnight, which includes respiratory management including deep suctioning, seizure management with rescue medication, as well as assistance with personal care, daily living activities, and home learning.
We are looking for confident, compassionate carers with excellent communication skills, experience supporting children with complex clinical needs, and the flexibility to work within a set rolling rota. You should also feel comfortable following infection control measures, to include wearing of PPE, and supporting the family on holidays abroad.
This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a new care package, making a real difference in a child’s life.
