Care Assistant to support a young woman & her dog in LS21 - Otley - LS21
This role is on an adhoc basis, not on a regular basis.
We are looking for someone (local to Otley) who can support our daughter in looking after her dog and offer extra support to herself when we take respite breaks or cover her existing PAs when they are on annual leave or sick.
She is a wonderful, caring and fun young woman who loves making different crafts, reading, baking, watching TV and is very content in the home; however, she suffers from extremely high levels of anxiety which affects her physically and restricts her ability to undertake everyday tasks, leaving the house, and socialising.
Support may involve walking her dog (strong labrador) and wiping him down on his return and ensuring his needs are met before you leave.
Respite cover will be planned in advance and will involve walking her dog more frequently and ensuring he is clean and has everything he needs before you leave. Support for our daughter may also be required, which may include, but is not limited to: preparing and making food/drinks, assisting with any tasks she may need support with, light household duties, spending time with her, taking her swimming/shopping, and giving her the required support to encourage her to leave the house, make healthy life choices, and live more independently. Sleeping nights will also be required.
Respite cover may include weekdays, weekends, and sleeping nights.
PA sickness/holiday cover may include Tuesday and Thursdays 11:30am to 2:30pm.
Dog walking cover to be arranged at times to mutually suit.
£13.05 - hourly rate
£11.44 - sleeping nights rate
