Make a Real Difference

Routes Healthcare is seeking caring, reliable, and compassionate Female Complex Care Assistants to support a young person in his own home near Carlisle.

This is not a rushed domiciliary care role. You'll be supporting one client in a home environment, giving you the time to build a genuine relationship and deliver high-quality, person-centred care.

Our client is great fun and enjoys music, nursery rhymes, cartoons such as Peppa Pig and Cocomelon, being read to, and trips to the cinema. We're looking for carers who are warm, patient, engaging, and don't mind joining in with the occasional singalong.

This is a 2:1 care package, meaning you'll always work alongside an experienced Complex Care Assistant who leads on the clinical aspects of care while you provide support with daily living activities, moving and handling, and ensuring the client remains safe, comfortable, and happy.

What You'll Be Doing

• Providing dedicated one-to-one support within the client's home
• Delivering personal care with dignity and respect
• Supporting with moving and handling
• Assisting with daily routines and activities
• Creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment
• Monitoring wellbeing and reporting any concerns
• Completing accurate care documentation
• Working closely with family members and healthcare professionals

Clinical Care May Include

Full paid specialist training is provided through Routes Academy; however, care tasks may include:

• Tracheostomy care
• Ventilation support
• PEG feeding
• Medication administration
• Clinical observations

What We're Looking For

Essential

• Minimum 6 months' UK care experience
• Full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle
• Compassionate, reliable, and patient approach
• Right to work in the UK
• Comfortable working within a family home environment

Desirable

• Experience supporting children
• Previous experience with tracheostomy care, ventilation, or PEG feeding
• NVQ Level 2 or 3 in Health & Social Care
