I have quadriparesis and experience a lot of pain. I need help with hoisting, personal care, taking medication, drinking and eating; cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping, admin etc; feeding my dogs {raw food}, training and exercising them. I need your arms and legs to enable me this make to happen.
Requirements:
Due to my vulnerability, RELIABILITY IS ESSENTIAL!
Previous experience is not a prerequisite, as I can guide you, including in relation to how specifically to handle me and the dogs, one of which who can be quite sharp.

Being flexible to work as a team with my other PA’s covering sickness and holidays would also be an advantage. No time wasters, please only apply if you are interested in this role.
