• 🚶 Mobility and equipment support (getting around safely, transfers, and using mobility aids)
• 🧺 Housekeeping (making/changing beds, laundry, tidying, light cleaning, and emptying commodes)

✨ You’ll also:

• 🤝 Encourage social engagement and family connections
• 👀 Monitor health and report any changes to healthcare professionals and family
• 📝 Maintain accurate documentation of care provided
• 🛡️ Respond to emergencies safely and effectively
• 🧩 Work collaboratively with families and the wider care team

🦸 What You’ll Need (Besides a Cape!)
