to regain lost skills through ill health. You must be able to treat

possible. The work will involve supporting clients to get up each

clients back into their own community. Your work place will be the
client’s homes or in residential homes and you will be working as
part of a team.

interesting, some days you will be supporting clients to achieve
there aims and aspirations through goal planning, on other days you
may find yourself taking a client to lunch or possibly ten pin
bowling.
