Care Assistant

Total Community Care is part of City & County Healthcare Group. You’ll have access to all the resources, career pathways, benefits, investments, opportunities, and security that being part of City & County Healthcare Group brings. It’s the best of both worlds. We have an exciting opportunity for a carer to assist and support a young man with a spinal cord injury at his home in Cambridge. You would be required to support this client at home, out and about, and socialising/ attending appointments. Daily tasks will include providing personal care, meal preparation, cleaning/laundry. The client also has a pet cat. This is a busy and rewarding role, which requires someone adaptable, self-motivated, and reliable. You don’t need complex care experience to apply for this role as this is a fantastic opportunity to grow your skills and become part of a team that makes a real difference. You’ll receive full training and ongoing clinical support to develop in key areas such as tracheostomy care, ventilation, seizure management, and stoma care - and much more. You must hold a clean automatic or manual driving licence as the client has a vehicle that you will be expected to drive.
