* Maintain accurate care records and report incidents or safeguarding concerns.
* Work collaboratively with colleagues, families and clinical professionals.
* Follow least restrictive practice, with physical intervention restricted to authorised situations within current training and competency.
Essential requirements

* Experience of enhanced staffing packages or comparable intensive support settings.
* Practical experience managing physical aggression and behavioural escalation.
* Strong de-escalation, communication and teamwork skills.
* A clear understanding of safeguarding and professional boundaries.
