PA for gentleman in Bressingham - @ £17.57 p/h - Diss - IP22
Job Reference (a73aed94)
Job Purpose:
To provide support for a positive and independent man who is a wheelchair user.
I’m a 34-year-old man living with Friedreich’s Ataxia, which affects my balance, coordination, and muscle control (similar to MS). I value kindness, empathy, and a person-centred approach to care.
Although I try to do as much as I can for myself, I need support with all aspects of daily living, including personal care, domestic tasks, shopping, cooking, and engaging in activities.
I enjoy going to the gym, and I have a dog and a cat, so it’s important that my PA is an animal lover.
In this role I am looking for a local Personal Assistant to join my existing team, primarily to provide holiday and sickness cover. Flexibility is important, as hours will vary depending on cover requirements.
If you’re kind, reliable, and enjoy helping others live independently, I’d love to hear from you
