Job Share - 2 PA's to Support Lady in Weston Longville, NR9 27.5hrs weekly at £15 per hour - Norwich - NR9
Job description
Job Purpose
To provide daily support for an older lady with mobility issues.
Location
Weston Longville, NR9
Details
I am an 80-year-old amputee wheelchair user seeking friendly P.A. support to assist me both in my home and to get out and about. Because I will require daily care, this is most likely to be a job-share arrangement. My P.A’s will need to be capable of managing transfers from chair to bed/toilet etc. with the use of a hoist. Training will be available. I require some personal care, including washing, dressing, and catheter care; therefore, females are preferred. My P.A’s will also support me with domestic tasks to keep my home tidy and safe, as well as meal preparation ensuring I have appropriate meals to support my diabetic diet. I would like my P.A. to occasionally take me out shopping or for social activities. Due to the remote location, a driver with their own car is important, and it would be an advantage if their vehicle could accommodate me with boot space for my wheelchair (I have a blue badge for use if I am taken out).
