Care Assistant for a lady P/T @ £10.42/hr in Stockton-on-tees
Apply at UKCIL.com. Reference: e2930987
An opportunity has arisen to provide support to a lady with all aspects of daily living. She is living with MS in the Stockton area The successful candidate(s) will be reliable and have a positive approach to work. Experience of using a hoist and familiarity of one person hoisting is desirable but training will be given. Ideally you will have worked as a Personal Assistant before and be comfortable assisting in all aspects of the job including personal care.
I live with my husband and our very friendly cockapoo. I have had MS for 12 years and am now at the stage of needing hoisting for every transfer. I need help getting up, washed/showered and getting dressed each morning. I have a catheter and the drainage bags will need emptying or replacing. There would be some light domestic duties such as emptying the dishwasher or tumble dryer too. We have a large Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (WAV) which enables me to get out and about. If you have a clean driving licence and are over 25 it will be possible to include you on the insurance. This would allow us to maybe go out for a cuppa, go to the shops/garden centre or take the dog further afield for a walk.
The hours of work are 17.5 per week over 6 days and will be split into:-
2 hours x 3 days
2.5 hours x 3 days so she can have a shower
2 hours x 2days for social interaction
