Clinical Support Worker

We are looking for compassionate and enthusiastic Care Team Members / Clinical Support Workers to join our children's hospice care team. This is a rewarding opportunity to support children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, helping them to experience comfort, fun, independence and meaningful moments while also providing support to their families. Working alongside our registered nurses and wider multidisciplinary team, you will provide personal care, play and developmental support, comfort and delegated clinical care, following each child's individual care plan and working within your assessed competencies. What you'll be doing:

• Providing compassionate, child and family-centred care.
• Supporting personal care, nutrition, mobility, comfort, sleep, play and everyday activities.
• Supporting children during planned stays, short breaks, symptom management and end-of-life care.
• Observing children closely and escalating any changes or concerns to the registered nurse.
• Working alongside nurses, nursing associates, play, therapies and family support colleagues.
• Developing your skills through training, supervision and competency-based learning.
  
  Have experience supporting children, young people or adults with complex health, disability or care needs.
• Are kind, compassionate and able to put children and families at the heart of what you do.
• Enjoy being part of a supportive multidisciplinary team.
• Are keen to learn and develop new skills.
• Can work flexibly across our 24/7 service.
Experience in a children's hospice, hospital, community service, special school or respite setting would be welcomed, but your values, approach and willingness to learn are just as important.
