Description

We are recruiting a team of Care Assistants to provide care for our young client in Little Bentley, Essex, just outside Colchester.

Our Client

Our 6-year-old client’s complex needs stem from their brain injury. You will be assisting with his Cerebral Palsy and his medications via his PEG.

He is a playful, energetic boy who loves to play, socialise and learn- is highly intelligent, loves a good science experiment and is always on the go! He communicates using his eye gaze, dashes about everywhere in his walker and is very much in charge of directing his own fun.

Working knowledge of Play-Doh recipes is essential, alongside a sense of adventure, a good imagination and a lot of energy. He swims regularly, and we are looking to hire someone fun who can make each day as interactive as possible!
