LW CK ED, PT female (GOR*) PA required for female with complex medical issues - NW Edinburgh
Part-Time Female (GOR*) Personal Assistant Required
I am seeking a compassionate, reliable, and caring Personal Assistant (PA) to support me with complex medical needs.
About Me:
- I live independently in my own home, with family visiting regularly. Due to chronic pain, fatigue, and reduced mobility, I sometimes find everyday tasks difficult or impossible to manage alone. I am looking for a PA who will support me at my own pace, respect my dignity, and help me maintain as much independence as possible.
- I am an easy-going, relaxed, and caring person. I enjoy getting out when I feel able, although I can experience anxiety around this. Having the support of a PA would help me feel more confident and comfortable going out.
- I drive and have a car, and I would like my PA to accompany me on outings.
- I enjoy going out in nature and on short walks, for example, a visit to the botanical gardens. I use a powered wheelchair when out and about and have a hoist in my car.
- I share my home with a dog and a cat, so it is important that you are comfortable around animals.
The role
The goal of this role is to empower me to live a fulfilling and comfortable life while receiving the care and support I need.
The role includes:
- Assistance with personal care, including bathing, dressing, and grooming (when required)
- Mobility support, including assistance in and out of my wheelchair
- Support with meal preparation (e.g., chopping fruit and vegetables)
- Assistance with light household tasks such as changing bedding, hoovering and cleaning the bathroom
- Prompting to take medication when required
- Emotional support and companionship
- Accompanying me to hospital appointments and support with communication if needed
- Accompanying me to shops and assist with carrying items
- Being flexible and responsive to changing daily needs
About you:
You are:
- Experienced in a care role, ideally supporting individuals with disabilities, chronic pain, or fatigue
- Compassionate, patient, empathetic, and positive in attitude
- Reliable, trustworthy, and professional
- Able to follow guidance however, also be intuitive to my changing needs and when required be able to use your own initiative to support me.
If you think you will be a good fit for this role, I would love to hear from you.
