Job description

About

About Me

I am a 58-year-old man who is deaf and has multiple

disabilities. I am looking for a caring, reliable female

Personal Assistant to support me with day-to-day living.

I like to remain as independent as possible but need

some help around the home and getting out and about.

I enjoy going shopping when I feel up to it and am partial

to a takeaway, especially a fish and chip dinner. Some

days I have more energy than others, so I am looking for

someone who is flexible and understands that my

support needs can vary from day to day.

Hours and Rate of Pay

The rate of pay is £12.71 per hour. Hours are to be

discussed at interview.

Location

Doncaster, DN7

What Would You Be Doing?

You will support me to get up in the morning and assist

with personal care where required. You will help me

maintain my home by carrying out household tasks,

preparing meals, making drinks and ensuring things are

kept organised.

Part of the role will involve supporting me in the

community, including accompanying me shopping and

driving me to hospital, GP and dental appointments. On

days when I am not feeling up to going out, there will still

be plenty to do around the house.

You will also assist me with my medication by

dispensing it into a daily pill organiser and following a

medication chart. In addition, I need support managing

paperwork and correspondence, including reading post

to me, helping with bills and administration, arranging

services and contacting tradespeople when needed.

Most importantly, I am looking for someone who can

provide practical support and companionship to help me

live independently.
