Job Description

We are seeking dedicated Healthcare Assistants who are passionate about providing personalised care and support to our service user.

Benefits of joining our team include competitive pay rates, confirmed rotas, and full clinical training. Whether you have experience in complex care or are eager to learn, we want to hear from you!

By working with us as a Healthcare Assistant, you’ll be a valued member of a compassionate team dedicated to caring for a young boy in Newton Aycliffe.

Our service user is a lively individual with an infectious smile and a cheeky personality that brightens everyone's day, making him a joy to care for.

He enjoys watching TV, unwinding with head massages and cuddles, and loves soaking up attention from his family and care team.

At night, he is usually asleep when his care team arrives. He often sleeps well through the night, but should he wake, you will gently help him settle back to sleep by offering his iPad or turning on the TV.

Your role is to provide specialist care, remain vigilant to his needs, and manage his clinical interventions overnight. You will provide comfort, offer reassurance, and create a soothing environment to ensure a restful night’s sleep.

This isn't just a job – it's a chance to have a significant impact on the lives of others.
