About the Client Meet Mary, a woman in her late 60s who lives in her own home in Ealing with her husband and a dedicated 24-hour care team. She sustained an Acquired Brain Injury several years ago and now requires 2:1 support with all aspects of her daily living, personal care, mobility, and health needs. Mary presents with complex needs including motor and sensory impairment, osteoporosis, limited verbal communication, and reduced cognitive capacity. She is unable to weight-bear and is fully dependent on her support team for repositioning, personal care, and mobility using a powered wheelchair and full manual handling equipment (hoist, slings, and slide sheets). She can sometimes experience periods of increased agitation and may present with behaviours that may challenge. Mary enjoys an active and meaningful lifestyle and benefits greatly from consistent, calm, and experienced support.
The Role at a Glance As Mary’s Support Worker / Night Carer, you will provide high-quality, individualised care as part of an established and growing team. You will support her with all aspects of daily living while promoting her comfort, independence, and emotional wellbeing. Your responsibilities will include full personal care with 2:1 support, moving and handling, continence care, support with nutrition and hydration, community access, emotional support, and following care plans and therapy programmes. You will also carry out domestic tasks, including laundry and general household duties. Working closely with the wider team, you will follow detailed care plans and risk assessments to deliver safe, consistent support at all times.
This Job Would Suit A calm, experienced, and resilient Support Worker / Night Carer with at least 2 years’ experience within a support role. You must be confident with manual handling, hoisting, and providing full personal care.
