Personal Assistant (PA)/Support Worker
Job ref. PUR-167-286 (nights)
About me   I am a lady in her late 40’s who has a variable illness with varying needs looking for a PA to join a team of PAs to support me to live as independently as possible.

 

I believe laughter should get us through most situations but the illness I have does get me down sometimes so I’m looking for someone with a great sense of humour but with empathy too.

 

I love to get out of the house, love live music, cinema, theatre, fast cars and travel.  I’m looking to find a companion in a PA as well as a carer and am seeking someone with similar interests.

 

Hours and rate of pay £12 per hour

24 hours per week – 3/4 Nights – Every other weekend – Days to be discussed (Additional hours may be available)

 

Location Doncaster (DN5)
DBS/Checks Confirmation of DBS check

Right to Work and references will be needed.

What you would be doing… A waking night position would be varied.  Some nights you may have to stay with me all night giving drinks, medication, monitor breathing & temperature, repositioning, helping with pain etc.

Other nights you would need to leave me to sleep but regular check-ups are required.  During these nights, PA’s are required to do any household duties, paper work or laundry/ironing (minimal laundry/ironing).

If I have to go to hospital the PA is required to stay with me.

 

The person I would like… Someone kind, with a sense of humour, has empathy, can think on their feet, happy to work within a team and on their own.

You should be trustworthy and punctual and able to take instruction.

 

Please send a CV (with 2 references) and a covering letter explaining why you would suit this role. Thank you.
