About our client: Josh is 6 years old, living with his Mummy, Daddy, and little brother in their fully adapted home in Southwest London.

Josh sustained a Perinatal Hypoxic Brain Injury at birth resulting in profound and complex medical needs. He has Dystonic Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy. He receives a high level of support and input from multiple medical professionals and teams. Josh requires suctioning, and receives all nutrition, fluid and medication via his PEG. He is unable to verbalise, using facial expressions, body language and sounds to communicate. ‘Team Josh’ is nurse-led and provides round the clock support working like a well-oiled machine to ensure he receives the highest level of care, support, and therapy input.
Overview of role: Josh is supported on a 2:1 basis (day and night), he is making fantastic progress and will be attending school regularly from September. His team follow a detailed care plan, providing support in all areas of his ADL’s, complex care, and rehabilitation which involves daily therapy input. Weekday shifts start with the school run, returning home to continue the afterschool and evening routine. Weekends are filled with things to do, and Josh’s team facilitate and enable him to participate in all activities. Bespoke training is provided; however, you must have training and experience in PEG, suctioning and seizure management.
Who this job would suit: You will come into this role with excellent experience in complex medical care, be compassionate, thoughtful with a nurturing nature, and enjoy working as part of a team.
