JOB DESCRIPTION

Personal Assistant



A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

I am 22 year old woman and I live in Sully with my Mum and Dad, two sisters, and three dogs. I enjoy baking, cooking, and playing with my dogs. I enjoy watching Netflix.

I am good at making people laugh, being kind, cheering people up, thinking of others before myself, and enjoy doing things for others.

I get very anxious about going out, and I sometimes feel a bit down in myself. I have Adrenal Insufficiency and I carry an emergency injection. You may need to have training to administer my injection in case of an emergency.



PURPOSE OF THE JOB



The purpose of the job is to assist me in gaining independence in going out and being encouraged to go out to expand my experiences and to improve my confidence. I'd like to start using the bus, but I would need support with doing that.



HOURS OF WORK



6 hours per week - weekdays



RATE OF PAY



£14.76 per hour



TASKS CAN INCLUDE



Encouraging me, reassuring me, and helping me to keep calm and relaxed
Supporting me to access social activities such as the cinema and bowling
Ensuring I am safe at all times
Providing me with companionship/being a mentor
Suggesting new ideas of what we could do, and be patient that I may need encouragement
I get tired very easily and need a lot of rest breaks



TYPE OF PERSON REQUIRED



You must be capable and sensible to work on your own initiative
Being trustworthy is compulsory
Car driver and owner is essential
Someone who doesn’t mind pets in the home
Experience working with children with anxiety and depression
Someone who is funny and talkative and encouraging.
I have Adrenal Insufficiency and I carry an emergency injection. You may need to have training to administer my injection in case of an emergency.
Someone who is patient and understanding as I have a poor memory and short attention span.
