Interested in working in social care? Read on to find out how you can get involved.
About the Employer
Hi, I’m looking for one or two people to provide support to my everyday living. I currently have 15 hrs a week which is covered but this will be available soon as my pa is pregnant. (Hours will increase to 25 while PA is on Maternity Leave). I’m on oxygen full time and find breathing extremely difficult when I do anything so need someone to be my right hand. The role is varied and flexible and can be a days outing one day and cleaning, washing and cooking the next. I will be adapting along with you. Someone with experience in general and especially with oxygen is helpful or the willingness/ability to learn quickly. I’m in my 50's, married with 4 lads and 8 grandchildren. I’m quite outgoing, social and friendly and family orientated. I like things done properly first time but will listen to ideas etc. I love my 2 cockapoo dogs and enjoy going out with them as much as possible but will need help with walks and getting my wheelchair assembled and oxygen bottles ready etc to get out.
