SEN Support Worker

About this client: Fabulous Josie is 15 years old, and lives at home on the Isle of Wight, with Mum, Dad and her two younger siblings. Josie is a fun loving, engaging teen with a great sense of humour and loves music, particularly boybands (One Direction and Jonas Brothers), swimming in her hydrotherapy pool, movies, playing with her siblings, and will LOL if you make silly (fart!) noises or break into song and dance! Josie sustained an Acquired Brain Injury; she has a physical disability and is reliant on others to meet all her needs. She uses a manual wheelchair and walker, has a PEG in situ for medication, fluid and to top-up nutrition, but enjoys a soft food diet also. Josie communicates through sounds, facial expressions and body language. Although Josie is medicated for her Epilepsy, she can experience up to 100 seizures per day, these are short and do not tend to disrupt her typical day. Emergency medication is always on site and on person. Josie requires 2:1 support during the

day, and 1:1 waking night support, her family home is fully adapted (ceiling track hoists etc.). Now there is an opening to join her amazing team to support Josie during the day. Previous experience is not essential, personality fit is key!
