The team includes Registered Nurses, Support Workers, Allied Health professionals and specialist clinicians due to this child facing a number of clinical challenges including dystonia, pain, regular respiratory infections that require at times hospitalisation and medical management.

His severe dystonic quadriplegic cerebral palsy means we seek a specific, sustainable, competent, dedicated workforce to manage the challenges he faces daily.

These challenges include, but not inclusively, inadvertent self-injurious behaviour, abnormal sensory feedback, complex pain syndrome and unsafe swallowing requiring gastronomy feeding and airway management.
