Are you a caring and reliable person who enjoys helping others live life to the fullest? We’re looking for a friendly Personal Support Assistant to provide around 12 half-hour sessions a week to support an easy-going individual who’s ready to get back into a healthy and active routine. This is a FTC of 1 year.
Your role will include offering gentle encouragement and practical help with swimming two or three times a week, as well as providing support to re-establish a gym routine. You’ll also assist with everyday tasks such as doing the shopping, collecting medication from the pharmacy, and offering light admin and community access support — helping to make day-to-day life smooth and enjoyable.
Typical support days are Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, though some flexibility is available to suit both your schedule and theirs. You’ll be welcomed into a calm and friendly home — shared with a gentle, affectionate cat — so being comfortable with feline company is a must!
If you’re patient, proactive, and have a warm personality with a passion for helping others maintain independence and wellbeing, we’d love to hear from you.
Duties include:
- Medication prompting/administering
- Personal grooming
- Clinical tasks
- Administration
- Housekeeping
- Shopping
- Cooking
- Transportation
- Companionship
- Dressing / undressing
- Bathroom assistance
Candidate qualities:
- Respectful of the employer's privacy and confidentiality
- Reliable with good timekeeping
- Able to both follow instructions and work on own initiative
- Hygienic, tidy and well organised
- Fit and healthy to undertake the required duties
- Patient and possess excellent interpersonal skills
- Honest and cheerful
- Creative
- Able to speak and read English to a reasonable standard
- Must be comfortable with pets
- Able to always work to high standards of health & safety
Additional requirements
Non-smoker due to medical reasons, Non-smoker preferred or someone willing to refrain from smoking during working hours
