PA Lady and Companionship ES837

Overview

I am a 79-year-old lady living with rheumatoid arthritis, and I am looking for a kind, reliable Personal Assistant to support me at home and help me stay as independent as possible. I use a wheelchair most of the time, although I can walk short distances with a walker. I already have a wonderful PA who supports me four mornings a week, and I am now looking to build my team.

The role is for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings, as well as at least five evening calls, totalling around 17 hours per week. Morning support will involve helping me to shower, get dressed, and prepare lunch and dinner. Evenings are more relaxed and focus on helping me get ready for bed and providing my evening meal. I am very flexible with the timing of the evening calls.
