Children's Residential Home Registered Manager

An exciting opportunity has arisen to become the Registered Manager of an outstanding home for children with disabilities.

Place:  A home for children with physical disabilities, associated learningn difficulties and sensory and health needs. It provides both short breaks and full-time residential care. Staff will perform health procedures, intimate and personal care and moving and handling tasks which they receive training for and are competency assessed by health professionals.

The overriding principle here is that the children cared for should have an experience that is as enjoyable as possible, in a safe, healthy, and relaxed environment which enables them to reach their full potential.

We work in partnership with children, their parent/carers, health, and other disciplines, to provide a service that is appropriate to children and responsive to their needs.

The service achieves this by being committed to:

• Taking a 'children first' approach and treating each child as an individual with specific needs
• Offering the highest standards of physical and emotional care, consistent with the child's routine
• Empowering children by offering choices whenever possible and by giving opportunities to experiment and encourage independence
• Treating each child with respect, taking into consideration race, gender, culture, religion, and sexual orientation
• Treating parents/carers with respect, having awareness of their position, and applying a non-judgemental approach
• Involving children and their families and/or carers in the decisions that affect their lives
