Female Personal Assistant required for lady in Blofield, NR13 6hpw @£12.89ph
Job Purpose
I am looking for a female Personal Assistant to support me in my home and in the community. I have been diagnosed with chronic health conditions which affect my mobility and my communication. I also have autism and anxiety which affect my confidence. I live with my 18 year old son, who has additional needs. Ideally you will help me with planning, shopping for and preparing healthy meals. I require some help to keep my home clean and tidy and to organise and keep on top of finances and paperwork. I also require some assistance with communication including using the telephone and technology. I sometimes need prompting with personal care and may require assistance with this on occasions. Due to my health conditions, I sometimes find it hard to meet my physical health goals and would like support to do this. I would like help accessing the community and would love to find some groups of people with similar conditions to me. I also enjoy arts and crafts.
