Essex Short Breaks Passport ID
Short Breaks Community Clubs and Activities are a range of enjoyable activities for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND). They help young people to make friends, take part in new activities, become independent and have fun, whilst offering parents and carers a break from additional caring responsibilities.
Short Breaks Community Clubs and Activities help children and young people:
- Take part in activities away from their family
- Make friends
- Try new things
- Develop skills and independence
Specialist HealthCare Staff Training
The Provide CIC team of experienced nurses offer education, training, competency assessment and support for staff who work with children with a disability who have any of the following additional healthcare needs:
- Seizures requiring emergency intervention, such as rectal diazepam, buccal midazolam or rectal paraldehyde.
- Enteral feeding via nasogastric tube, gastrostomy or jejunostomy.
- Administration of oxygen and oxygen saturation monitoring.
- Oral/nasal suction.
- Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) requiring emergency intervention, such as Epipen, Emerade or Jext pen.
- Requirement for assisted artificial ventilation, such as BiPAP or CPAP.
- Other needs, which will be considered on an individual basis.
Depending on the needs of your child, we may ask care staff to watch our training videos followed by a virtual assessment or attend classroom training in subjects such as epilepsy, tube feeding or severe allergies. In addition to this, a nurse will meet with the people caring for your child to go through your child’s individual and specific needs and requirements.
If your child or young person requires specialist healthcare training, please click the download now button below and speak with your club’s Short Breaks Lead.
