Josh, 6, is a happy and outgoing young chap who loves getting out and about on day trips with his family, as well as having more relaxing story-time moments in his home. Josh has dystonic cerebral palsy; he is non-verbal, has his medication administered via PEG and uses a hoist. We are looking for a team of support workers to work with Josh on a rota basis.
The position will involve supporting Josh in the community and at home, with his personal care needs and medication administration. The support worker will follow guidelines outlined by Josh’s parents, work in partnership with and support them to promote Josh’s independence. All aspects of Josh’s medication will be undertaken by the support worker, including administration via PEG, suctioning, keeping records and reporting any concerns to the family.
