Some shifts may be regular each week, like a weekly group/evening class etc, though can also be quite varied, as life happens.

Let me know your availability upon applying, so I can see how this could work for us?
POSITION:

This position covers more social aspects of my life and those outside the daily domiciliary support, though these will also feature as part of the role. To include Includes social/hobbies, personal care, cooking from scratch, home chores and anything life entails. Essentially, anything you do for yourself, you may well assist me with at some point, though I like to be independent where feasible.
Some physical assistance is required depending on my abilities at that time, and helping me navigate decisions when I’m exhausted and my cognition is challenged. Some emotional support and understanding is also helpful at times, when things become overwhelming.

Initial training and shadowing will ideally be done with one of my other carers, to show you the role for 2-3 shifts. We may have to arrange these on different days/times to those advertised, when my other carer does their shift, but I will try to work with your availability too, wherever possible.
