Personal Assistant (home care) required to become part of my 1:1 home care team of 5 people.
I enjoy my garden wildlife, going on my computer and playing board games. However, to do these things I need assistance to get up, dressed, eat etc as I have little body movement and complex postural care throughout my day - which is where you come into my life to make these things possible!
I have employed PAs for over 30 years and have a good relationship with them - and many have been with me for over 7 years. Full details and how to apply can be found on the application link.
I currently have 1 position available with lots of opportunities to cover other staff when they take leave etc - particularly over the Summer.
