We are supporting a young medical student (early 20s) who sustained a high-level spinal cord injury while on holiday from university.

He is exceptionally bright, motivated, and determined to return to his studies and live as independently as possible. He has a very positive mindset and is fully engaged in his care and future.

He lives in a fully adapted family home in Oxfordshire with a specialist care setup and strong family support.

He is also one of a very small number of people in the UK to have a Neuralink implant, allowing him to control his laptop through thought. It’s a fascinating and rewarding environment to work in.

This is a meaningful, long-term package, where consistency and quality of care are essential.

• Ventilated via tracheostomy

• Requires airway clearance support and suctioning

• Autonomic dysreflexia risk and blood pressure instability

• Periods where communication may be limited

You will be working alongside a Critical Care RN, supporting a high-acuity care plan.

• 24/7 package

• 2:1 care at all times:

  • 1 x Critical Care RN

You will be part of a small, consistent team, ensuring continuity and high standards of care.
