JOB DESCRIPTION
Personal Assistant
A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
I am 79 years old and live in Rhiwbina, Cardiff.
I have Advanced Alzheimer’s and possible onset of vascular dementia. I have very limited mobility including the need to use a stair lift and a wheelchair for anything over a few meters distance. I can walk about 30 meters but have to stop every 10 meters or so. I can walk around a supermarket if I have a trolley to lean on. I am not bladder continent at night and the occasional bladder continence accident in the day, so need to be reminded regularly to go to the toilet.
I like music from the 50's, 60's and 70's, singing and going out to dementia groups for social stimulation. Colouring books and music help ease my anxiety. I love ice cream but I can only have it as an occasional treat due to health concerns. I was very independent so I do not respond well to being told what to do! I still have a good sense of humour.
PURPOSE OF JOB
My husband has been my carer for 7 years and we now need extra support to manage my needs as I deteriorate which will hopefully improve his wellbeing by having a better balance of his interests and living with me
HOURS OF WORK
Current hours are 6 a week in total. Two 3 hour sessions on Tuesday and Friday afternoons.
RATE OF PAY
£14.10
TASKS INVOLVED
Moving and Handling - I need help to lie down and sit up in bed in the evening and morning and my wheelchair has to be lifted in and out of your car boot. I have to be pushed in the wheelchair and I am currently about a size 24.
Social outings, community activities
TYPE OF PERSON REQUIRED
Experienced with dementia and trained in manual handling (this can be arranged)
Reliable/Punctual/Organised
Caring/Trustworthy/Compassionate
Friendly/Sociable/Sense of humour
Confident/Proactive/Knowledgeable
Car driver/access to a car with business insurance/Clean driving license
ABOUT THE JOB
Though a part-time job, this will be a proper job requiring a National Insurance number to be submitted. A probation period will be necessary in the first instance. Wages will be paid 4 weekly. You will receive 5.6 weeks paid holiday (pro rata). You will be required to apply for a DBS check at no expense to you.
Please Note: Dewis Centre for Independent Living is acting on behalf of a third party and will not be your employer or be liable for any issues arising out of your employment should you be offered employment.
Thank you.
