We are CCH. With 14,000 colleagues across 32 care companies, we have one purpose: to make sure no one in need of care is ever forgotten or left behind. We’re not only changing lives, we’re transforming the care sector. Our people-first approach puts care professionals at the centre of everything we do. Our goal is simple: to be the best place to work in care.

What makes CCH a great place to work? The results speak for themselves:

At Advantage Healthcare, part of CCH, we live by our values of Community, Courage, and Heart, and we’re looking for like-minded people to join our growing Complex Care team in Peacehaven.

Complex Care Assistant: Role & Responsibilities

In this role, you’ll provide overnight support to a child with complex care needs, with key responsibilities focused on monitoring their tracheostomy, suctioning, managing PEG feeds and administering medication.

We also have another local paediatric package you may be required to work in the Brighton area with very similar clinical requirements.

If you’re compassionate, resilient and motivated to make a genuine difference in someone’s life, we’d love to hear from you!
