Care Assistant

Listing ref 10b71a47da

About the role

We’re looking for a kind, skilled, and attentive carer to support a gentleman with a cuffed tracheostomy who requires 24/7 ventilation, PEG feeding, tracheostomy care, suctioning, and medication administration via gastrostomy. Strong verbal and written English is essential, as he uses a communication tablet. Daily life is calm and home-focused, centred around TV, meaningful conversation, and visits from his wife and children. You’ll provide safe, person-centred care, offer companionship, and support both the client and his family emotionally. This role suits someone confident in managing complex health needs, respectful, patient, and happy to be part of a warm, home environment. Full training will be provided.

What you’ll need

Whilst training is provided, experience supporting someone with complex care needs would be advantageous, particularly experience with tracheostomy and a ventilator. The role requires support with personal care, respiratory management and escorting to appointments.

Why choose us?

We see extraordinary achievements happen every day thanks to the talent and commitment of our people. We want to transform the care industry by working smarter, using innovative tech, and driving forward positive change. As the largest care company in the UK, we have the size and success to offer you a world of career opportunity, choice, and security. Join us on our journey and continue yours.
