A local care provider in Blyth seeks a Personal Care Assistant for a senior lady, supporting her with personal care, medication management, and meal preparation. The role involves working up to 18 hours a week, with potential for more, and requires a caring individual who enjoys engaging with an elderly client. If you appreciate the joy of supporting someone with a delightful personality, this could be the perfect job for you.
We are looking to recruit bank workers to cover illnesses and annual leave for up to 18 hours per week. There is the potential for the hours to increase to 21 hours per week over 7 days a week, which would require more than one worker to fulfil. Would you enjoy supporting an elderly lady who is a real character and will be sure to keep you on your toes? She has her own mind, is young at heart, likes to shock and have a wicked sense of humour, enjoys a practical joke at others’ expense, not hers. So, she could be described as mischievous! This private, down-to-earth lady has at times mobility issues due to spondylosis and pain. Personal care is very much part of this role for this lady who takes pride in her appearance and will include showering, for the reasons mentioned and due to episodes of incontinence. With a passion for chocolate and a good cup of tea you will need to be able to make this woman a good brew and prepare her meals. You will be responsible for ensuring that she has her medication in a timely manner. Old time music brings her pleasure as does singing, but if you are not in tune you will be told! Shopping for magazines is a favourite pastime as well as ensuring the birds are fed and the garden watered, probably by you! Described by her family as a loving, accepting person who is a joy to be around, who wouldn’t love this job?
