I am looking for a Personal Assistant to provide support and care for 16 hours a week, variable shifts, including weekends.
Female Personal Assistant is required to support me with personal care needs, domestic duties and social activities.
Applicants need to be happy to take me out into the community and have good communication skills, be patient and understanding as I have complex needs. They must also be honest and trustworthy, be helpful and caring.
They must be discreet, committed, organized and resourceful and be able to work on their own initiative.
Due to my physical needs, manual handling is necessary as I sometimes need to use a wheelchair in the community. Applicants need to be physically fit enough to control the wheelchair whilst walking and if necessary to lift it into or out of a vehicle.
To help with both my physical and mental health issues I have an assistance dog, so the successful applicant must be happy to interact with an essential companion.
Experience in the care working profession preferred although full training will be given.
Post subject to disclosure and barring service (DBS) check.
The above post is exempt under the Equality Act 2010, Schedule 9, and Part 1 – female only applicants need apply.
