Children’s Care Assistant - #35125

Do you enjoy caring for children in the community?

Are you experienced with complex care?

Superior Healthcare needs you!

*You must be based in the UK to apply for this role – we do not offer VISA sponsorship*

We provide round-the-clock care packages to support people including children, young people and adults who have long term health conditions to live in the comfort and safety of their own home.

We are urgently seeking carers and support workers to cover regular weekend night shifts in Hythe. This would involve caring for one of our clients from our paediatric division. You will have the opportunity to work on a long-term basis with one or a small number of clients in the local area.

• Choice of night and weekend shifts.
• Shifts of 8-12 hours working with one Client.
• Fixed rota with option of overtime.

Superior Healthcare will provide full, classroom-based training when you join us as well as paid/supported induction shifts and ongoing supervision provided by our in-house team of nurses and supervisors.

If a client’s needs mean that you require extra skills (for example, if they need assistance to meet their nutritional requirements), we will provide paid, specialist training to ensure that you can confidently support their needs and develop your own skills.

If you are eager to build a rapport with one or a small number of clients within your local community, keen to broaden your skills and welcome the consistency of the work that Superior Healthcare can offer, we hope to hear from you!
