Our client is looking for a personal assistant for their two sons, who have additional needs, to support them in social activities and accessing the community. Both of our client’s sons are wheelchair users and one is non-verbal and has a hearing impairment.
The role will consist of supporting the client’s sons separately in a 1:1 capacity. The successful candidate will have an easy-going attitude, be sensible, patient, understanding and fun. The successful candidate should also have excellent communication skills. Our client’s sons require assistance with personal care (washing, dressing and toileting), medication and at meal times. Our client has always encouraged independence where possible in their sons, so it important for the successful candidate to continue this. Our client’s sons enjoy bowling, shopping and being outdoors.
The role is 39 hours per week, paid at £11.44ph. The role is based in Scunthorpe. Full driving license and own transport is essential. Experience in a similar role desired but not essential, as full training will be given.
Due to the nature of the role an enhanced DBS will need to be completed, which we will fund.
