Hi I'm a 26 year old man. I had a stroke when I was 11 years old. I am looking for one or two people to support me daily.
I am looking for a PA who is:
· Modest and respectful
· Experienced in care mandatory (experience of working with people with brain injury preferred)
· Organised and on time
· Patient
· A non-smoker
What I love doing in my spare time is:
· Playing chess
· Going out to new places
· Reading
· Writing short stories and poems (I have had some of my work published)
· Listening to music
· I like a good chat as well
PA's should have:
· A full, clean driving license
· Flexibility in their working hours (some days may be longer / shorter)
· Awareness of / following COVID-19 guidelines (including PPE, sending temperature before shift start)
· Mobility handling training
· Availability at short notice is ideal (only if required occasionally)
If you are passionate about care and looking to directly work for an independent employer who is funny, enthusiastic and lively, I'd like to hear from you.
