About the Person You’ll Support:

You’ll be supporting a 42‑year‑old man living with a C5 complete spinal cord injury following a car accident. He lives with his partner and his rescue dog, Marty, and enjoys socialising, pub quizzes, and staying connected with family and friends. Before his injury, he lived an active life — football, running, cycling, and evenings at the gym. While life has changed, his independence, dignity, and comfort remain central to who he is.

He experiences:

  • Reduced sensation in limbs
  • Unpredictable muscle spasms
  • Limited balance and risk of falling forward

This means attentive, safe, and confident support during transfers is essential.

Qualifications - What He’s Looking For:

You’ll be a great fit if you are:

  • Reliable and punctual
  • Calm, confident, and professional
  • Clear in communication
  • Patient, respectful, and discreet

You’ll support him by:

  • Handling transfers with vigilance and care
  • Maintaining accurate, factual records
  • Adapting to changing needs
  • Promoting independence, dignity, and choice

Your confidence and competence will help reduce his anxiety when working with new staff, helping him feel safe, respected, and in control.

Here’s what makes us different:

  • Free DBS check – we cover the full cost of the DBS application
  • Full training & paid induction - no experience needed
  • Career growth - clear progression into senior & leadership roles
  • Family-friendly - enhanced leave for life’s big moments
  • National opportunities - relocate and continue your career within CCH
  • Perks & discounts - Blue Light Card, RAF scheme, and more
