Personal Care Assistant

Overview

Looking for someone to support my child 4 hours on a Saturday, preferably during school time. 12 hours during holidays can be arranged on days that work best for the personal assistant and our family. I would fund for my child to be taken out of the home, weather dependent, of course. I will provide snacks, lunch, and drinks for him.

His wheelchair will need to be taken and, depending on the activity, his walker as well.

• Provide nappies changes as needed.
• Assist with changing clothes if required.
• Help keeping hands and face clean and supervise personal hygiene.
• Assist with getting around using either his wheelchair or walker.
• Provide constant supervision, as he has no concept of danger.
• Care for him in the way he needs, supporting his independence while providing help with basic tasks.
• Assistance with feeding if needed, noting he can feed himself and drink from a cup or bottle; he can walk with or without support (currently taking around 10–20 steps unaided).

Rate of Pay: £12.21 per hour.
