This is a full time permanent role which is based at a specialist residential home in Barnsley, which supports adults with complex needs, challenging behaviours, learning disabilities and autism. Your role will involve conducting assessments and delivering interventions for communication and dysphagia needs, in both 1:1 and group sessions.
