Enviva, part of the Sonderwell Group is looking for Complex Care Assistants in the York area

Our client tells us about herself below:

I am an active, energetic 3 year old who loves nothing more than exploring my surroundings through touch and smell; I am registered blind so need support to keep me safe, but this doesn’t stop me exploring and having adventures. I have a condition which means my airway is narrow, so have an artificial airway called a Tracheostomy in my neck, but my mum and care team can teach you all about that.

I love to listen to music and stories, and am very clever at choosing which story I want on my Tonies box. I am fiercely independent and will tell through expression and vocalization when I need your help. I love to go to the park and on bus rides to the shops.

I have a varied diet and am getting really good at feeding myself, but just need supervision to make sure food is cut up adequately and not too hot. I might make a mess but I really enjoy meal times. I am learning to use the potty like my friends at nursery.

We are looking for a fun loving carer to join the team that care for me. This is headed up by a Children’s nurse who will give you all the training you need, and my mum can help too.

We provide the highest quality complex care at home to clients by employing the best possible staff to provide that care. Our dedicated team of healthcare professionals is here to help and support our clients to live life as they choose, in their own homes and empowering people to live as independently as possible.
