About the Client/Child Alice, 15, is a fabulous teenager with a real enthusiasm for life, learning, and play. She has a great sense of humour, likes a good laugh and LOVES pantomimes! Alice enjoys a range of activities and hobbies such as horse riding, imaginative and creative play, colouring and playing tag. Alice has an acquired brain injury, epilepsy, a learning disability, hearing loss and a movement disorder affecting all four limbs. Alice uses an electric wheelchair when outside which she loves to zoom around in which is great fun! Alice can communicate verbally in short sentences; it can take a little time to get used to her speech as she gets very excited when talking. Alice can find it difficult to process information and so needs short, clear and concise communication. Alice lives at home with her mum, stepdad, step-sister – and multiple pets, including 4 large dogs.
The Role at a Glance This role involves supporting Alice after school and on an alternative Saturday or Sunday.

The focus of this role is on engaging Alice in meaningful, enjoyable and stimulating activities at home and in the community. You will also support her personal care, mobility and clinical needs, including following epilepsy management protocols; full training is provided. Alice’s mum is always nearby to offer guidance and support, so you will not be working alone. The role includes record keeping, and incorporating elements of physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and language therapy and at a later date, music therapy into daily routines. Alice lives in a busy family home with dogs, cats and Sugar Gliders, so applicants must be comfortable working around pets.
This Job Would Suit The ideal candidate will be confident, engaging, and energetic, with a flair for creating fun and creative activities for Alice during after-school routines. You should have experience supporting clients with epilepsy and seizure management, as well as experience working within a family home setting. Applicants must be comfortable in a household with large dogs and other pets, be a non-smoker/vaper, and this role is open to female applicants only.
