JOB DESCRIPTION

 

 FEMALE Personal Assistant

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

 

I am a lady in my mid 50’s living with my parents in St Athan. I have my own space in the house as my parents want me to be as independent as possible. I have epilepsy and have daily seizures and I have very little communication, but I am able to communicate my needs. I am very happy and easy-going and just like to play as I am very childlike.

PURPOSE OF THE JOB

 

To provide me with support for my daily morning and bedtime routine.

HOURS OF WORK

 

There are 5 hours per week available, also the ability to cover annual leave and sickness of my other PAs.

Looking to cover Wednesday 9am – 2pm.

RATES OF PAY

 

£14.50 per hour

 

 

 

TASKS CAN INCLUDE

  • Playing with me
  • Helping with some personal care (washing and toileting)
  • Ensuring I take my medication
  • Help with dressing
  • Prepare breakfast

TYPE OF PERSON REQUIRED

  • Someone who is reliable and able to cover additional hours if needed
  • A non-smoker
  • Someone who is bubbly and friendly
  • Someone who will engage and chat with me
  • Experience not essential as my parents will support you initially until you are comfortable in the role
  • Someone who can drive and has access to their own vehicle.
