I’m a wheelchair user living independently in Stokes Croft. I’m looking for one or more dependable personal assistants/carers to help with daily routines and build a mixture of regular and backup cover.
Duties: The work may include personal care, dressing and shower-related support, preparing simple food and drinks, laundry, light household tasks and practical daily help. No nursing or medical qualification is needed, and no lifting is required. I manage all medication doses and inject my own insulin; a PA may bring items to me or give an agreed reminder but would never decide or guess a dose.
Skills and Experience: Formal care experience is useful but not essential. Reliability, punctuality, practical judgement, respectful communication and comfort with personal care matter most. Clear guidance, routine cards and practical onboarding are available.
Hours: Regular visits are initially about 60 minutes in the morning, 30 minutes at lunch and 45 minutes in the evening, often around 45, 15 and 20 minutes once familiar. Occasional longer help may be arranged separately, and exact slots would be agreed individually.
Hourly Rate: £15 per hour.
Location: Stokes Croft, Bristol.
Application procedure: Applicants should email Jacko Cardozo at jackocardozo74@gmail.com with their Bristol area and travel time to Stokes Croft, recurring availability, whether they are comfortable with personal care, relevant experience and earliest start date. Make sure you mention the JobShop when applying.
