Overview

Make a Real Difference – Join Fidelis Healthcare

Are you a compassionate, patient, and understanding carer who wants to make a meaningful difference in someone’s life?

 At Fidelis Healthcare, we are seeking dedicated Healthcare Assistants to support a young client living at home with her family in Lincolnshire. This is a truly rewarding opportunity to deliver consistent, person-centred care and build a lasting, positive impact.

 About the Role

 You will be supporting a young female with a learning disability and epilepsy, within a loving and supportive family environment.

 This role goes beyond routine care. It is about building trust, providing reassurance, and creating a sense of safety and stability.

 The client benefits from structure, calm engagement, and consistent support—particularly during the night. She may use behaviour as a form of communication, so a patient, observant, and emotionally intelligent approach is essential.

 At times, behaviours may present as challenging, especially when the client feels overwhelmed. Your role will be to respond with calmness, reassurance, and confidence, ensuring her wellbeing at all times.

 Your Responsibilities

·         Support with epilepsy care in line with care plans

·         Promote dignity, comfort, and reassurance at all times

Why Join Fidelis Healthcare

·         Up to £18.00 per hour

·         Paid induction and ongoing training

·         Continuous support and professional development

·         Flexible working patterns

·         A supportive, respectful, and clinically-led team environment

 Requirements

·         Minimum 1 year of care experience
