We are looking for a caring and reliable PA to support 27-year-old lady, referred to as CRO-NKH, in her daily life. The role involves working mostly on Mondays to Thursdays, with shifts typically starting around 8:30am. Some flexibility is required, as occasional Fridays and weekends will also be part of the schedule. As a PA, you will provide support with personal care, including assistance with showering and toileting. You will also spend meaningful time with CRO-NKH at home and in the community, supporting her with everyday activities such as cooking, washing up, tiding room, making bed going out for social activities, and attending the swimming pool. During swimming visits, you will assist her with getting ready before entering the pool and supporting her again afterwards. The role also includes helping CRO-NKH with her physiotherapy exercises and accompanying her to visits to the mosque. As CRO-NKH is unable to use public transport, it is essential that the successful candidate has a full driving licence and access to their own car. We are looking for someone who speaks clear English and is responsible, proactive and able to think creatively when providing support. The ideal candidate will be encouraging and motivating, helping CRO-NKH develop and maintain her independence while showing initiative and a positive attitude in day-to-day situations.
