Two Personal Care Assistants for a lady 36 HRS @ £17.23/hr in Cramlington

Apply at UKCIL.com. Reference: e6ce3b66

£17.23/hr – 36hr/week contracts on a rolling 4‑weekly rota – once all training and probation period is completed. Seeking a confident and adventurous Personal Care Assistant for a vibrant 36‑year‑old student teacher… who’s anything but ordinary! I am currently recruiting the final two full‑time Personal Assistants to complete my amazing care team. Are you the right person, to support me on my own, exciting journey to become a primary school teacher and live an active and meaningful life, despite my complex health conditions? I am a student teacher studying a part‑time PGCE (a prior Biology Graduate) with regular placements in local schools each week. You will be required to assist me physically – but not to be my voice… or my brain! This position offers fun, the challenge of learning new skills, attending many adventures together … and hopefully having lots of giggles along the way! Your role will include cooking nutritious (allergy/intolerance friendly) meals daily, providing both complex medical and personal care, and enabling me to embrace an active social life (accompanying me to the cinema, live music concerts, theatre trips and nights out to bars in Newcastle). You must be able to use your initiative and the training provided to work alongside me and my team, to assist me safely during your lone working shifts. Whilst also fitting seamlessly into my life and routines – both at home while in school. This involves supporting me to live as independently as possible, in my own home – a bungalow in Cramlington, and being on hand in the sidelines, discretely while at school in case a medical/care need arises. Based in Cramlington, Northumberland. Earn £17.23/h for a 36hr contract, following a 4‑weekly rolling rota (see example rota below). I’m looking to complete my team of 5 dedicated PA’s, to provide high quality, around the clock 24‑hr, 1‑1 support. The shift patterns include a mixture of 12‑hr, day shifts and waking overnight shifts. This includes regular weekend shifts, with roughly one long weekend off/month (see example shift patterns below). So, if you’re a quick learner with boundless energy, have a bright and bubbly personality and can both use your own initiative and follow instructions and directions (& meet the following criteria) …let’s chat!

• Shift patterns: 36hr/week contact. Example shift patterns: Position One; 36hr/week contact: Week 1: Tuesday & Wednesday night shift (20:00‑8:00) & Saturday day shift (8:00‑20:00); Week 2: Monday & Tuesday day shift (8:00‑20:00) Saturday night shift (20:00‑8:00); Week 3: Thursday & Friday night shift (8:00‑20:00) Sunday day shift (20:00‑8:00); Week 4: Monday night shift (20:00‑08:00) Wednesday & Thursday day shift (08:00‑20:00).
