We are a busy and vibrant household looking for a Personal Assistant to support a 43 year old lady with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) to continue living independently with her husband, who also has disabilities, and their lively son. We enjoy good conversation, watching crime dramas and Coronation Street, sharing a nice cup of tea, listening to all kinds of music, gaming, and getting creative with arts and crafts. We are looking for someone who will fit comfortably into our family home and become a valued part of our daily life. The role will include assisting with transfers, dressing, household tasks, and the many unexpected things that can arise during the day. The ideal person will be reliable, flexible, open-minded, and have a good sense of humour. A little quirkiness and a positive attitude would fit perfectly into our household. If you enjoy working in a friendly family environment and helping someone maintain their independence, we would love to hear from you.
