Are you a compassionate, experienced Care Assistant who believes that great care is about promoting independence, respecting choices and making a genuine difference?

At HFH Healthcare, we're looking for a reliable and attentive Complex Care Assistant to support a gentleman living with a spinal cord injury in his own home in Chingford.

Our client is able to communicate his wishes and make his own decisions. He values his independence and wants carers who will listen, respect his preferences and support him to remain in control of his daily life.

This is a rewarding opportunity to provide dedicated, one-to-one care and build a positive, trusting working relationship.

You'll provide personalised support with daily living and specialist care needs, including:

• Personal care, dressing and daily routines.

• Mobility assistance, positioning and stretching exercises.

• Suprapubic catheter care and bowel management, including transanal irrigation.

• Medication administration and monitoring wellbeing.

• Recognising and responding to autonomic dysreflexia in line with the care plan.

• Encouraging independence and respecting the client's choices.

• Working closely with the client and clinical team to provide safe, consistent care.

All specialist care will be delivered in line with appropriate training, care plans and competency assessments.

What We're Looking For

• At least 6 months' previous care experience.

• Driver essential for this position.

• Experience with spinal cord injuries or complex care is desirable.

• A calm, compassionate and professional approach.

• Confidence supporting personal care and physical disabilities.

• Good communication skills and attention to detail.

• Someone reliable, proactive and comfortable working independently.

• A genuine commitment to dignity, independence and person-centred care.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who understands that the client should always have a voice in how their care is delivered.
