JOB DESCRIPTION SAMPLE
Personal Assistant
A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
I am 79 years old and live in Rhiwbina, Cardiff.
I have Advanced Alzheimer’s and possible onset of vascular dementia. I have very limited mobility including the need to use a stair lift and a wheelchair for anything over a few meters distance. I can walk about 30 meters but have to stop every 10 meters or so. I can walk around a supermarket if I have a trolley to lean on. I am not bladder continent at night and the occasional bladder continence accident in the day, so need to be reminded regularly to go to the toilet.
I like music from the 50's, 60's and 70's, singing and going out to dementia groups for social stimulation. Colouring books and music help ease my anxiety. I love ice cream but I can only have it as an occasional treat due to health concerns. I was very independent so I do not respond well to being told what to do! I still have a good sense of humour.
PURPOSE OF JOB
My husband has been my carer for 7 years and we now need extra support to manage my needs as I deteriorate which will hopefully improve his wellbeing by having a better balance of his interests and living with me
HOURS OF WORK
16 hours each week to be scheduled as follows, current hours are Monday to Friday only.
Monday, Wednesday & Friday- 7-9am
Tuesday & Thursday- 7.30-9.30am
Monday to Friday- 8.30-9pm
Thursday- 2.30-6pm
This is a provisional schedule and subject to change.
We would prefer to employ 2 people to share the hours as they are very likely to increase.
RATE OF PAY
£14.75
TASKS INVOLVED
Moving and Handling - I need help to lie down and sit up in bed in the evening and morning and my wheelchair has to be lifted in and out of your car boot. I have to be pushed in the wheelchair and I am currently about a size 24.
Social outings, community activities
TYPE OF PERSON REQUIRED
Experienced with caring for people with dementia and personal care is essential.
Able to manual handle (training can be arranged)
Reliable/Punctual/Organised
Caring/Trustworthy/Compassionate
Friendly/Sociable/Sense of humour
Confident/Proactive/Knowledgeable
Car driver/access to a car with business insurance/Clean driving license
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.
Please Note: Dewis Centre for Independent Living is acting on behalf of a third party and will not be your employer or be liable for any issues arising out of your employment should you be offered employment.
Thank you.
