Personal Assistant - 26 Hours Per Week - Crail (2nd and 3rd October Only) (SDS/IL/352860)
Female only - Due to the personal care elements of this role an Occupational Requirement applies. This is permitted under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010.
We are looking for personal assistant for a one off weekend cover in October to help a 95 year old female whilst her family are at a wedding. She is a gentle lady who loves crosswords and watching tv. Although a little forgetful she enjoys the company of others and reminded to drink etc.
This lady will need her dinner made on arrival, usually with a cup of tea and some friendly company until ready for bed. She will then need assistance to get changed etc for bed and reminded to go to the toilet.
There is a separate bedroom for you to stay over in and get some rest. Overnight care is your presence to allow the family peace of mind whilst they attend a wedding. She is usually a good sleeper. It is just a matter of listening out and checking her before you leave. In the morning carers will come in from her normal care package. This will happen Friday and Saturday.
On the Sunday we just need someone to come and make her dinner as family will return later that night.
We would ask that you write a small paragraph about yourself which will allow the family to gain a better idea of why you would like to have this post. Applicants must have a caring attitude, have a good sense of humour, be reliable with a positive and flexible approach to work. Having experience within this area would be of benefit.
This role requires an enhanced check through PVG (Protecting Vulnerable Groups) where you will be asked to provide a copy of your certificate.
