Description

Ocean Healthcare are looking for an experienced
Female Healthcare Assistant (
Twilight shifts) to support a young woman (33) in the Hill Barton area of Exeter.


She was sadly involved in a road accident in which she sustained a high-level spinal cord injury resulting in quadriplegia.

She requires 24/7 care which the great team at Ocean Healthcare provides. We are looking for a highly experienced healthcare assistant to join our team in supporting this young woman.

Our lovely service user lives in an adpated bungalow with her brother, pet cat and rabbit. She requires pain management, bowel care as well as all other aspects of personal care. Experience with AD (Autonomic Dysreflexia) would be a real advantage, but is not essential.

Care involves going out in an adapted car so being able to drive would be helpful, but again, not essential.

You need to be a seasoned carer with a solid understanding of personal care and moving & handling. You will be trained and supported by our outstanding team of specialists and nurses.

It is not essential that you have specific experience in spinal injury as you will receive comprehensive training and support.


Shifts are 7 days pw:


7pm - 11pm & 9am - 1pm
We are happy to discuss how scheduling for this care package works and if/how this would suit you.


Pay rates:

-
£12.72 p/hr Monday-Friday:

-
£15.85 p/hr Saturday-Sunday


It's vital that we have staff consistency and so you will be required to pick up a minimum of 3 shifts per week.

You will be able to pick up more shifts each week if you would like to.

Flexibility would be appreciated, but we are willing to consider your personal circumstances if there are days/times you are unable to work.

There are lots of work opportunities within Ocean Healthcare.

We are committed to education and learning and there is lots of opportunity to develop your skills and experience and work across many care situations.

For this package, you must be very patient and caring.
To learn more about this opportunity to work with this lovely young woman, please get in touch.
