Complex Care Worker – FND & Autism Support
Female Carers Only | Complex Care Experience Essential
Clover Care Group is looking for an experienced female Complex Care Worker to join a package, supporting a young adult client with a range of complex neurological, emotional and support needs.
This is a rewarding opportunity for a calm, compassionate and understanding carer who enjoys building trust and supporting someone to maintain their independence, choices, routines and quality of life.
The Role
- Female carers only
- Support with daily living and personal care where required
- Medication prompting and support
- Support with nutrition and hydration
- Mobility and fatigue management
- Supporting anxiety, sensory needs and emotional wellbeing
- Recognising and safely supporting functional seizures associated with FND
- Supporting routines, appointments and community access
- Companionship and meaningful activities
- Working within detailed care plans and individual support strategies
Key Experience
The client has Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) with functional seizures. These episodes are genuine and involuntary but require a different approach from epileptic seizures. Staff must remain calm, maintain safety and dignity, reduce stimulation and follow the client's individual FND care plan.
The client may experience episodes following anxiety, sensory overload, fatigue, pain, unexpected changes, lack of sleep or increased stress. Staff need to recognise individual warning signs and understand how to provide calm reassurance and appropriate support.
The client also has autism, OCD, Tourette syndrome and anxiety, making calm communication, predictable routines, advance warning of changes and sufficient processing time particularly important.
Medication support is primarily prompting rather than taking over, with the aim of maintaining the client's independence and control.
Experience of FND, functional seizures, autism, anxiety or similar complex support needs would be highly desirable.
About You & Our Values
At Clover Care Group, we believe great care starts with seeing the person, not just the care needs.

We're looking for someone who is:
- Experienced in complex care
- Calm, patient and emotionally intelligent

- Confident supporting people with neurological and sensory needs
- Comfortable recognising and responding to functional seizures
- Consistent and reassuring in their communication
- Respectful of personal space, privacy and boundaries
- Committed to choice, dignity and independence
- Someone who genuinely enjoys companionship and building trust
The right person will understand that their role is to support the client's life, not take control of it. You'll encourage independence, listen to what the client wants, respect routines and provide support without unnecessary pressure.
