REQUIREMENTS:

We’re looking for someone with experience working in a care environment, ideally with young adults/children. Complex care experience is desirable but not essential as training will be given, most importantly the client wants someone dependable, sociable and thoughtful with positive energy, solid common sense, vigilance and good communication skills. In return you will be able to gain experience and grow skills that few other roles provide, while working within a great team and a supportive family in a lovely environment that includes access to areas in the home specifically for support workers.
Our client may have complex needs but he’s defined far more by his wonderful qualities, he’s a delightful, incredibly funny person and an inspiration to the people around him. For more information contact Daniel.Scratcher@libertatemhealthcare.co.uk
