Personal Assistant

Do you love Scotland and its history? Can you talk about Rabbie Burns and social affairs with passion?

I live in Dumfries, and I am looking to recruit a local Personal Assistant for 6 hours to support me with my morning and bedtime routines, supervising medication, and assisting me at mealtimes. Due to my personal care needs I would prefer a female applicant.

Only apply for this position if you have experience in adult social care.

I need your support with four visits on a Thursday and a Friday, with a view to more hours to cover weekends and holidays. The rate of pay is £12 per hour
