Ref: DP4603

Location: Shoreham-by-Sea Details

This role is to support a Man

Drivers licence required: Yes

Own vehicle needed: Yes

Employment status: employed

Hours per week: Covering annual leave and sickness. shifts vary, some are just mornings or afternoons, some all day.

Hourly pay rate: £14.40 to £21 depending on caring for one of two people at a time

We are looking for bank carers to cover our existing carers annual leave and sickness. We have 7 permanent carers so there will be the opportunity for quite a lot of shifts throughout the year. In future this could lead to regular shifts. The role is caring for two brothers (aged 21 and 25) who have Duchenne muscular dystrophy and are wheelchair users.

The younger of the two is also autistic (verbal but shy) At present we are looking for cover for day shifts. We are looking for someone who has experience with complex care and hoisting. The role involves all personal care and shadow shifts/ training will be given to help you and the boys feel comfortable with each other. Most of the shifts are 1 :2 i.e. caring for both boys at the same time (they are used to sharing one carer and it works well as one likes company and the other doesn't!) Ideally looking for cheerful and kind people with a good sense of humour. Some shifts might involve driving to football matches or meals out with friends.

Both boys are very keen football fans and support Brighton and Hove Albion. They like to get to as many matches as possible so if you're happy to drive our van that would be a bonus although not essential as we always have two carers going with them. As the boys have only recently started living independently from their parents, we are encouraging them both to take more control over their lives. We want them to feel a sense of achievement and normality to what is a challenging life, even if that is something as simple as what to have for dinner! It would be great if you feel you could help them with this next step.
