We are changing the face of support for people with intellectual, physical and sensory disability and/or autism in Ireland. We offer progressive, one-to-one solutions geared towards the empowerment of the people we support, rather than limiting their experiences of life. We put each individual, and support of their disability, at the centre of everything we do, helping them live an involved, meaningful and empowered life; focusing not on what they can’t do, but on what they can achieve. This spirit comes to life in our client-centred, home-from-home Residential Centres, and in the specialist services we provide.
What is the position?
You will provide a professional, high-quality, safe and caring nursing service in our Residential House to our young adults who have Prader Willi Syndrome. Recognising the unique needs of people with PWS, this service has been specifically designed in line with best practice guidelines and the team will receive specialist training and development from International experts. Our aim is to ensure that each person we support achieves their optimum potential.
