About Us
Routes Healthcare is a leading complex care provider – we are a care company, not an agency. We're real people who put individual healthcare needs first. We support people in their own homes (not in care homes), providing specialist 1‑2‑1 care for clients with complex health needs.
About the Role
This is a complex care position – you'll be providing dedicated, specialist care to clients with long‑term complex health conditions in their own homes.
What You'll Be Doing
- Specialist Complex Care: Supporting clients with tracheostomy care, ventilation support, and respiratory needs
- Managing complex medication regimens and clinical observations
- Providing personal care with dignity and respect for clients with physical disabilities
- Supporting clients with PEG feeding and nutritional management
- Monitoring and responding to changes in client condition
- Working closely with healthcare professionals and families
Your Role:
- Providing 1‑2‑1 care in the client's own home
- Working solo or as part of a 2‑person team on double‑up care packages
- Following detailed care plans created by our clinical team
- Maintaining accurate care records and clinical documentation
- Communicating effectively with clients, families, and the wider care team
What Makes Complex Care Different
Unlike standard home care, you'll be working with clients who have significant clinical needs requiring enhanced skills and training. This includes supporting people with:
- Long‑term ventilation and tracheostomy care
- Neurological conditions requiring specialist positioning and care
- Life‑limiting conditions requiring palliative and end‑of‑life care
- Complex physical disabilities requiring moving and handling expertise
All focused on supporting each individual's lifestyle and well‑being while managing their clinical needs safely and effectively.
