The lady is sociable, she enjoys accessing the community and love seeing her family who live nearby, including 1 very loveable pet dog.
The lady has profound multi learning disabilities and complex health needs, but this does not hold her back. Her beautiful new bungalow is modern, light and fully accessible; the lady also has her own hydrotherapy pool. This environment is key to her living life to the full, but it does not stop there.
The lady uses a broad selection of communication technologies including eye gaze, head switch and innovative music applications, the successful candidates will be trained on all equipment.
Training will begin at one of our nursing services near Twickenham, where you will undergo competency training delivered by a nurse led team. You will be supported by the provisions Home Manager and supervised by the Clinical Lead Nurse Manager to ensure that a good quality, safe and effective service is delivered.
Drivers are desirable as the lady has her own mobility vehicle. There are also two parking spaces available for care staff vehicles. If you are travelling by public transport, there are two local train stations at Stamford Brook and Goldhawk Road, as well as Acton Central overground. The service is also on the 94 and 237 bus routes.

Choice Support and the families are looking for individuals who are caring, show initiative and can be creative in order to provide a stimulating home environment. Additional requirements are flexibility with working hours, as the service is 24/7 offering long, short, and night working opportunities.
The provision offers a rare chance to be involved in the beginnings of a bespoke service where an individual can develop her skills and build a successful career pathway in care.
