Lady in Long Stratton seeking female PA for maternity cover- 9.5 hours per week @ £11.81 - Norwich - NR15
Job Reference (7bd4dfe5)
Job purpose:
I am a friendly lady with mobility issues, who is seeking a female PA for maternity cover to assist with everyday living tasks.
I require someone who is able to work 2 mornings per week from 8am to 12pm, as well as one weekend per month, on both the Saturday and Sunday from 8am to 12pm each day. During this time I will require assistance with washing and dressing, general housework and meal prep.
Someone who is also able to provide three 30 minute calls per week to assist with toileting needs would be ideal.
Due to my mobility issues I use a power chair to get around my home. I also require the use of a hoist to aid my transfers from my chair and onto the toilet, as such someone who has experience of using a hoist would be ideal.
My speech isn’t always very clear and people can sometimes struggle to understand what I am saying, as such it is important that people ask me to repeat myself if they do not understand. Failing that I can always write things down.
This vacancy will be considered on a job share basis. If you are only able to cover some of the hours advertised, please do apply.
