I am a 28 year old living with M.E/ Chronic fatigue syndrome, Ehlers Danlos type 3, POTS and anxiety. I have been housebound for 8 years and also have had periods of being bedbound. I have had some small improvements but continue to be very debilitated by symptoms which vary from day to day.
I am in need of assistance with different day to day tasks to help me live more independently as I am in the process of moving out from my parents who have been my main caregivers.
Looking for someone who is gentle, calm and reliable. Who is open to to understanding my conditions. Cooking will be a core part of the job, so cooking skills are sought after, as well as taking initiative, organisation and good timekeeping.
Tasks will include:
- cooking: batch cooking hot and cold meals, food prep.
- Driving: occasional food shopping, collection from chemist/ doctors/ post office, taking me to appointments or outings for leisure
- domestic work: such as laundry, cleaning, organisation
- admin: assistance with bills, medical appointments, phone calls, forms/ benefits, helping assist me with my artwork (I am an aspiring artist).
Tasks will vary each shift
