The Role
We are looking for an additional Personal Support Assistant to join our existing team. The role is to support my daughter for up to 20 hours per week, flexible hours, who lives at home with me and our very old dog in Birstall.
Primarily she is looking for someone to support her to socialise. She likes to go down the local pub, so there will be some evening work, out for a coffee and shopping. She will also need assistance with getting ready for bed after her night out.
She does like to use public transport as finds watching other people fascinating but in the case that this is not possible you must be willing to drive our Motability vehicle. She uses an electric wheelchair to get about.
You will be asked to provide cover for other team members when they are on holiday or sick, so a degree of flexibility is needed along with the tasks you are expected to undertake. Must be prepared to assist with all aspects of personal care.
If you're a fun loving, caring, patient individual who is keen to help someone maximise their experiences and independence then we would love to hear from you.
