Summary

JOB DESCRIPTION



Part-Time Personal Assistant



A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF



I am a 49 year old man living in the Aberdare area with my father. Me and my father enjoy going out into the community to play bingo, attend church and to go out for food and Sunday lunch. When at home I like to watch TV, especially football and keeping up with the soaps.



I do have limited mobility and use a stick to aid me when walking and can be prone to repeating myself when talking. I can also be inappropriate at times.



PURPOSE OF THE JOB



I am looking for a PA to support me to access the community and take part in social activities and to provide my father with some respite. The PA will also support my mental wellbeing and help me to keep active and potentially take part in some exercise.



RATE(S) OF PAY



£13.50 per hour and 40p per mile where applicable.



HOURS OF WORK



I have 6 hours per week available and this will be used in two shifts per week. Flexibility on days and times but likely to be weekdays and not on a Thursday.



TASKS CAN INCLUDE



Going for a walk together.
Potentially trying the gym or another form of exercise.
Taking me shopping.
Some help with domestic tasks and general support around the house.
Helping me with admin and form filling.
Prompting me to complete some tasks when needed.
Some days might just be a chat and company in the house if we cannot get out.



TYPE OF PERSON REQUIRED



A driver with business class insurance.
Someone in good health willing to be active with me.
A person with a good sense of humour and does not take offence easily.
A punctual and reliable person.
A kind and talkative person.
A person who respects the privacy and confidentiality of working in someone else’s home.



ABOUT THE JOB



This position is subject to satisfactory references and a DBS Disclosure (Police Check), which must be completed prior to the commencement of employment. The cost of this check will be covered by the Local Authority.



All necessary checks will be conducted to verify that any candidate has the legal right to work in the UK before employment begins.

Although this is a part-time role, it is a legitimate position requiring the submission of a National Insurance number. Employment will commence under an initial trial period.

Wages will be paid on a monthly basis and appropriate holiday pay will be provided.



Please note: Dewis Centre for Independent Living is acting on behalf of a third party and will not serve as your employer or be liable for any issues arising from your employment should you be offered the position.
