Personal Assistant Required - Romsey, SO51

On behalf of our client, Head-First is recruiting a Personal Assistant to provide flexible daytime support to a 31-year-old man with an acquired brain injury currently living in a residential environment. The role will involve encouraging him to engage in a range of social activities and assisting him to access the community. Assistance with the client's mobility programme is an essential part of the role.

Hours are flexible and will be up to a maximum of 16 hours a week. However, there may be the opportunity to increase these hours in the future.

Our client is based in the Romsey area. Although he is currently in a residential setting, the plan is for him to potentially move to the Winchester area and live independently with a 24/7 support team. Following his brain injury, his limitations are cognitive and physical, but he enjoys social interaction and has a great sense of humour.

Support requirements:

To maximise our client's independence.

To work closely with the client's clinical team to maintain his physical wellbeing.

We are looking for someone who is dynamic, self-motivated, and enthusiastic. They should be able to work on their own with the client as well as being a good team player.

Up to date DBS at enhanced level required - the employer will pay if you need to apply.

Must hold a full driver's licence.
