Are you a compassionate and understanding carer looking to make a real difference in someone’s life?
At MCS Healthcare, we are looking for dedicated Health Care Assistants to support a young client living at home with their family in Radstock. This is a rewarding opportunity to provide consistent, person-centred care to an adolescent with a learning disability and epilepsy.
About the Role
You will be supporting a young person who lives in a loving family home. The client requires reassurance, structure, and consistent support, especially during the night.
They may use their behaviour to communicate, so they need a calm, patient carer who can understand their needs.

Building trust, offering reassurance, and responding in a calm and supportive way is essential.
This role is not just about care tasks—it’s about building a positive relationship, promoting a sense of safety, and supporting the client to feel comfortable in their own home.

* Empathetic, patient, and understanding
* A good listener who can respond calmly to needs
* Confident in supporting behaviours that may challenge
* Able to build strong rapport with the client and family
What You’ll Be Doing
* Providing personal and emotional support
* Supporting and managing behaviours that may challenge in a calm and safe manner
* Monitoring wellbeing and ensuring safety overnight
* Supporting with epilepsy care
* Promoting comfort, dignity, and reassurance at all times
Why Join MCS Healthcare?
* £17.00 per hour
* Paid induction and training
* Ongoing support and development
* Flexible working patterns
* Supportive and respectful team environment
What We’re Looking For
* At least 1 year of care experience
* A caring and professional approach
* Willingness to learn and follow care plans
* Experience in learning disabilities or similar settings (preferred)
Important Information
* Night shifts: 10:00 pm – 8:00 am
* The client lives at home with their family
* This role requires consistency and commitment to building trust
