JOB DESCRIPTION

Personal Assistants



A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF



I am a 76 year old woman in the area of Barry who used to work in the NHS for many years. I have various different conditions including Fibromyalgia, COPD and mobility issues which causes me a lot of body pain. I have a trapped nerve in the neck causing a lot of pain down my arms with constant sciatic pain in my left hip. And have had many operations on both my back and knees. I also has Bells Palsy- left facial drop and neuralgic pain; this affects my mouth which in turn affects drinking and eating.



I have sleep apnoea and wear Nippy machine at night. I require assistance to help put my mask on.



I am immobile and use an electric wheelchair. I can also use 2 sticks to transfer or walk short distances when I am able; however I am often unstable and am not able to walk far.




I'm a chatty person who loves nothing more than to have a cup of tea and a natter. It is important to me that I also maintain as much independence as possible.




Duties include but not limited to; personal care, cooking, cleaning, basic administrative tasks, medication tasks and taking to appointments. Must have a full clean drivers license and be willing to drive a Motability car. Some shift cover may be required and flexibility is needed.
