Your duties will include supporting students to achieve their individual goals, write and regularly update care plans and allocate staff to meet the needs of the students. You will be expected to support staff to encourage the students to do as much as possible for themselves by guiding and helping them to identify the assistance they require to live as independently as possible.

The postholder will have the ability to be reactive to different situations and ensure communications across the multi-disciplinary team are effective and accurate.
