We are seeking a small team of dedicated and compassionate Personal Assistants / Support Workers to provide 2:1 support for a 15-year-old young man with complex care needs in the Palmersville area of North Tyneside.

This is an opportunity to join a supportive family environment and make a meaningful difference to a young person’s daily life, wellbeing, and independence.

About the Role
The young man lives at home with his family in a fully adapted property designed to meet his care and mobility needs. He currently has an experienced PA who has supported him for a number of years; however, additional team members are now required to provide ongoing 2:1 support.

He has:
• Four-limb cerebral palsy
• Epilepsy
• Severe learning disabilities
• Cortical visual impairment
• No verbal communication

He is fed via a gastrostomy tube with a blended diet and requires carers who are attentive, patient, and able to develop a good understanding of his individual communication cues and routines.

Duties and Responsibilities
Support will include:
• Personal care
• Moving and handling
• Administration of medication via gastrostomy
• Oral suctioning to maintain airway patency
• Supporting clinical care needs
• Assisting with daily routines and activities
• Providing safe, attentive, and person-centred care
He also requires overnight BiPAP support via a non-invasive facial mask.

Training
Full training will be provided in all aspects of his care, including:
• Moving and handling
• Medication administration
• Clinical procedures relevant to the role

About You
We are looking for individuals who are:
• Caring, reliable, and patient
• Comfortable supporting a young person with complex needs
• Able to work effectively as part of a small team
• Willing to undertake specialist training
• Committed to providing high-quality, person-centred care
Previous experience in care or support work is desirable but not essential, as full training and ongoing support will be provided.

To Apply
The successful candidate will be required to complete a DBS application. This will be funded by the employer.

To apply for this position please email your CV and covering letter to admin@northumbriapayroll.co.uk stating the reference on the advert.
