Pa

I am looking for a caring, reliable and encouraging Personal Assistant to support me during weekday evenings in my home. I'm quite a quiet lady who likes peace, so am looking for a PA who is kind and understanding.

The role will involve helping me with evening meals. Depending on how I am feeling on the day, this may mean supporting me to prepare and cook a meal alongside you, or cooking something for me when I need a little extra help.

I would also like support twice a week on Mondays and Wednesdays while I take a bath. The PA would remain in the house during this time to provide reassurance and assistance if needed, helping me to feel safe and confident. There would also be days i would need light housework and washing up doing for me.

On days when I am feeling well and there is time available, I would love to get out for a gentle walk or spend some time pottering around in the garden as I enjoy nature very much, so an interest in supporting these activities would be welcomed.

I am looking for someone who is:

- Caring, patient and understanding.

- Reliable and trustworthy.

- Encouraging and supportive.

- Flexible and able to adapt to my needs on the day.

- Respectful of my independence and choices.

This is a rewarding opportunity to support me in maintaining my independence, wellbeing and enjoyment of everyday activities in and around my home.

Duties include:

- Other relevant duties as required
