I’m a lady in my 80s with dementia, looking for two kind, reliable, and chatty personal assistants to share 18 hours per week.

Morning support (9 am) includes washing, dressing, and a shower (twice a week) or a wash every day. Evening support (4:30pm) for a hour that involves making my evening meal and helping me get ready for bed.

I am looking for someone reliable, and I love a good laugh, so a warm sense of humour is a must! You’ll need to notice small changes in my health and have your own transport (travel expenses can be discussed). I live on a rural farm with my son and hope to find someone who will become a caring, friendly part of my day.

Shifts can split between people and discussed at interview. Females only need apply as permitted under Schedule 9, part 1 of the Equality Act 2010. The rate of pay would be £12.60 per hour with paid annual leave of 5.6 weeks pro rata. A suitable PVG is required.

Use reference CMAB600 when applying.
