Job description

Overview

Are you ready for a change and looking for a rewarding job in health and social care… look no further, this may be the job for you!

ABOUT ME

I’m a young man living at home with my dad and our friendly dog. I have a good sense of humour and enjoy being around people who are relaxed, respectful, and kind. I have complex health needs, including the use of a PEG and non-invasive ventilation to support my breathing. I require 24/7 care and support and I’m looking for a reliable, caring personal assistant to join my small, dedicated team.

My care is a mix of clinical and personal support — I need help with my daily routines, personal care, and monitoring of my equipment, as well as accessing the community.
