We are looking for a caring and reliable personal assistant to visit two to three times a week for up to 6 hours per week in the afternoon after school to support our six-year-old son.
Our son is smiley, happy, assertive, and has a good sense of humour. He loves being outside and watching things move in the wind and other sensory activities. He has physical and learning disabilities and requires constant supervision to keep him safe. He is non-verbal, so he needs someone to get to know him to be able to understand his communication techniques. He is a full-time manual wheelchair user; therefore, the personal assistant will be required to use a ceiling track hoist to carry out his personal care. He also has other medical needs, which can be discussed in more detail upon interest in the role.
