Personal Care Assistant Spennymoor £13/hr - part time £13p/h Days and Nights - SPENNYMOOR - DL16
Can you help care for a young boy who loves others and has a smile that can light up a room?
He likes to spend his days being talked to, reading story books with pictures, bouncing on a trampoline with the song horsey horsey, and splashing in a warm pool with Bing and Horrid Henry playing.
Alongside this, he has significant health needs that are life-limiting. He needs assistance to breathe, which occasionally turns into an urgent situation. Could you help (full training will be provided) and keep calm under pressure? Help stretch his failing body to keep him comfortable, ensure he is medicated and fed correctly via a tube, and help him sleep at night by assisting him to move and continue to breathe safely during the night.
This young boy comes from a busy household with dogs. It involves assisting at home with education and therapies and going out and about. Must be willing and hopefully wanting to get on a trampoline and in a warm pool each week. Ability to drive a wheelchair-accessible van is also needed.
Rate of pay: £13 per hour
Looking for someone 12 HOURS PER WEEK to cover, mainly evenings 3-8 pm, occasional 11-5 or waking night shift 7-7 to fit into the rota (inclusive of weekends) which is completed 6-8 weeks in advance.
