JOB DESCRIPTION
Personal Assistant
A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
I am a 27 year old female and live in the Llanrumney area. I am seeking a personal assistant to support my morning routine and other tasks. I value independence and may need assistance or support based on my capabilities each day. I am a disabled ambulatory power wheelchair user and I use a variety of aids to support myself throughout the day. I have multiple chronic conditions, the primary ones being; Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and Functional Neurologic Disorder (FND). I also have an Ileostomy. I have Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (cPTSD) and Anxiety.
Although I experience many symptoms throughout my day I manage these mostly independently and all training/information will be provided as we work together.
I live with my husband and our two dogs. I'm a crafty person and love to spend time outside when possible. Although I prefer to keep routine I do have to maintain some flexibility due to work, doctors appointments and my scouting commitments.
Successful applicant must be comfortable around dogs as I have two. They are lively but will provide hours of entertainment.
PLACE OF WORK
Support in my home to enable me to live more independently.
HOURS OF WORK
I am more comfortable with fewer PA’s. I only require one PA for a task however, for scheduling and timing purposes I’d be willing to consider 2 PA’s. If some of the hours aren’t suitable but others are do apply and we can discuss this at interview.
12.5hrs on average per week.
Morning Personal Care: Monday to Friday for 2hrs, either 7:30 - 9:30 or 8:00-10:00 (open to alternative timings in the morning).
5 hrs of support every 2 weeks for support with meal prep.
Bi weekly meal prep day to be discussed at interview stage there is some flexibility in this.
RATE OF PAY
£14.10 per hour
TASKS INVOLVED
Support in: showering, washing hair or bathing.
Personal care reminders: brushing teeth, using medical aids and changing ostomy bag.
Support putting clothes away and some support with dressing.
Some support in preparing breakfast
For twice weekly meal prep support with: putting shopping away and meal preparation - you don’t need to be able to cook, as long as you can follow direction and pass me the relevant ingredients. I love to cook however, the physicality can be difficult as well as the heat in the kitchen.
TYPE OF PERSON REQUIRED
Female PA due to personal care tasks.
Good communication skills, scheduling and time management.
Willingness to learn.
Reliable, empathetic, trustworthy and friendly
I am 27 years old and humour is my default. We will get on well if you are a fun, bubbly person with a good sense of humour.
Experience is preferred but not essential. All aspects can be learnt along the way. Some understanding of my conditions may be useful but is not essential.
Full UK driving licence - not essential.
Must be comfortable around dogs, I have two 3 year old dogs that are full of energy and would love to be friends.
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.
