About the Home: Stratford Lodge

Stratford Lodge is a specialist residential care home that bridges the gap between care and further education for young adults aged 19–25 who have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). The residents supported here have diagnoses of Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), severe learning difficulties, and associated complex needs, which can sometimes manifest in challenging behaviour. The home focuses heavily on creating personalized pathways to foster independence and vocational opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

Overnight Welfare: Provide direct physical and emotional support, ensuring the home is safe, clean, and optimized for the health and welfare of our residents (includes light domestic tasks).
Clinical & Medical Tracking: Assist young adults with medical and wellness needs. Once fully trained, you will administer medications, monitor clinical vital metrics (weight, temperature, respiration), and update Master Care Plans.
Personal Care Support: Help residents maintain their personal hygiene, cleanliness, and overall appearance—delivering intimate or invasive care respectfully when trained.
Relationship Building: Develop strong, positive, and healthy professional boundaries with the young adults and your night team.
Meticulous Reporting: Keep comprehensive, clear, and legally compliant records of overnight updates for the daytime handover.

An enthusiastic, committed individual with an innate sense of empathy and patience.
A mature, professional attitude with excellent communication and teamworking abilities.
A desire to learn continuously through on-going mentoring and specialized, fully-funded care training.
Flexibility to commit to a 42-hour weekly schedule including rotating weekend night shifts.
Sponsorship Note: While Cambian is a registered sponsor employer, they are unable to offer visa sponsorship to new candidates at this time.
