Job description

Personal Care Assistant for a young woman in Hunwick

I am looking for a personal care assistant to help with daily needs such as dressing, washing hair and assisting in the shower. Preparing some meals, taking me shopping and accompanying me to my activities. I like shopping, going to bingo, pimms and needles, discos, meeting friends and getting my nails done. I like to be as independent as possible. I already have a personal support worker but am looking for someone to cover days off and holidays including some weekends.

I don't like animals or children's activities and I'm not very keen on going to the cinema.
