Job: Part-time (Carer/buddy) Ref:
V2271 |
Description:
Richard is 18 and lives with his parents in
Luton. Richard has a part deletion of Chromosome
16 and has complex needs. He is delayed in
all areas of his development, doubly incontinent
and is very small in stature. Richard only
communicates by vocalising, he is partially
deaf and has limited mobility. He has autistic
tendencies and is fed through a gastrostomy
tube via a pump. Richard loves his Mum and
is very dependent on her for his care and
stimulation, therefore she would like someone
to come in on a very casual basis to enable
her to have a well deserved rest. Richard
loves music, going to snoezelen (multi-sensory
environment) and physical rough and tumble
play. It is very important for any potential
candidates to understand the level of his
needs and to take into account that it will
take time for Richard to be independent from
his mother. The family are not just looking
for someone to take care of his personal care
needs; but also to bond, stimulate and have
fun with him.
