About the Client and Support Needed:
I am looking for exceptional, dedicated, skilled personal care assistants to join the team that I am building as I have complex care needs. I live independently in my own home with my wife, who is my main carer.
As a member of our caring team, you'll be responsible for a wide range of tasks that can vary day to day, so an amount of flexibility is required. Some of the main duties include:
Administration of medication
Moving and Handling with Hoist
Gastrostomy Care / PEG feeding
Personal Care
Assisting me in the community
Administrative duties
Light housework
Ideally, you would also have previous experience with Status Epilepticus and practical experience of giving Buccal Midazolam and be able to identify and understand a medical emergency.
It is my wish that my support workers are non-smokers.
