Introduction:
My current PA is retiring, and I am looking for a mature female who has experience with Epilepsy. I suffer from Petit Mal seizures every day and Tonic Clonic seizures occasionally, so I need someone who can take control of the situation. I need to feel safe at home and when outside.
Duties:
Taking me out for coffee or shopping and to the hairdresser once a week. At home, you will be required to do light cleaning duties, e.g., dusting, hoovering, and some ironing. The hours worked will typically be over 2 days per week, but I need the employee to be flexible regarding which 2 days, as appointments may vary.
Essential Requirements:
* Reliable, honest, patient, and understanding.
* Driving licence is essential and confidence to drive an SUV.
* Experience with Epilepsy is crucial; I need to feel safe and know that the employee has sufficient experience to handle a tonic clonic seizure.
* Full driving license (you will be driving my car fully insured).
* Good communication skills and a sense of humour. Physically fit and healthy to adequately assist me. Mature female so we can relate.
* An Enhanced DBS (CRB) check is required.
