I am a lady with MS looking for a Female PA to support me with getting out and about so I can socialise more. I am chatty and friendly with a great sense of humour. I like making greetings cards and making my garden look lovely. It would be great if you could assist me in my garden so sharing that interest would be an advantage.
I am a wheelchair user but very independent. I will do as much as I am able so a PA that is easy-going and a good listener is important. The successful applicant will be comfortable to provide personal care when needed as some days I need more care than others. Some manual handling support including using a hoist will also be required but full training will be given.
A driver is desirable as this would make it easier for me to go out in my local community and socialise. Mileage will be paid when you take me out in your vehicle.
I really look forward to hearing from you and feel this could be rewarding and fun role for both of us.
Duties include:
- Moving and handling using a stand aid – training will be provided
- Prompting if I need to order my medication
