About the Role
We’re supporting an exceptionally bright and determined young medical student (early 20s) who sustained a high-level spinal cord injury while away from university.
Despite his challenges, he has a positive, driven mindset, is fully engaged in his care, and is fully adapted to live as independently as possible, with strong family support from his fully adapted home in Oxfordshire.
An extraordinary technological twist: He is one of a very small number of people in the UK who have a Neuralink implant, enabling him to control his laptop purely through thought.
This is a meaningful, rewarding role where you’ll help transform his long-term goals—building a genuine professional bond while delivering high-acuity nursing care in a home-based setting.
Clinical Complexity
This is a critical care at-home role requiring an experienced ICU/Critical Care Nurse for:
- Ventilation via tracheostomy
- Complex airway clearance and respiratory support
- Autonomic dysreflexia risk and blood pressure instability
- Unable to communicate changes in condition at times
Key Responsibilities
- Observation and clinical judgement are critical
- Early deterioration detection is essential
- Must work independently and confidently

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
