A friendly and warm-hearted 66-year-old lady living in the Uddingston area is looking for a Female Personal Assistant to provide one-to-one support at home and out in the community. She lives with MS and has recently experienced a stroke, and is seeking someone who can support her to continue living as independently, comfortably and enjoyably as possible.

Mobility support will be part of your role, including the safe use of a tracking hoist.
In addition, you will assist with everyday household tasks, including shopping, collecting prescriptions, light housework and escorting her to hospital appointments.
