I am looking to recruit 2 part-time Personal/Home Care Assistants to join my daughter’s (J) support team.

You should have experience supporting someone with complex health, physical, and learning difficulties.

Care will be provided in our home, working alongside our full-time carer, but you will also work independently at times. We are a busy household with Mum, brother, brother's girlfriend, J, a dog, a cat, and a tortoise.

J requires full support in daily living activities, including continence care, personal care (showering, hair washing, teeth brushing). She is tube-fed and uses a wheelchair, with a hoist available for transfers.

J also has uncontrolled epilepsy, which can cause severe seizures impacting her daily activities.

Good spoken English is desirable as J has communication difficulties.

J enjoys outings to garden centres, SPACE, seaside, pamper days, and has memberships/pass for National Trust and Sea Life centres. An interest in these activities is advantageous.

We seek someone who will think creatively and encourage J to participate actively in her interests.
