Personal Assistant

Capability Scotland - SDS Brokerage; Mouswald; On-site; GBP 40,000 - 60,000

Job description

Do you enjoy Watching TV and Painting? If you do, I would love to hear from you.

Capability Scotland isn’t the employer; we are acting on behalf of our client. The client will be the employer.

Hello, my name is Elaine, I am a young 70-year-old lady living in Mouswald. I live with my two amazing daughters who have been supporting me for a long time, but the time has come to give them some well-deserved rest. I enjoy watching different TV programs, painting, and going on small walks. However, due to my health conditions, I use a small stick to help me, as I have arthritis in both hips.

I am looking to recruit a personal assistant to support me in getting ready in the mornings and evenings. This will involve personal care and helping me get ready for bed. I am looking for someone who is caring and patient, as I have mixed dementia and Alzheimer’s. Sometimes I can get frustrated and upset. Experience in these areas would be great but is not essential.

The hours will be Monday to Saturday in the morning around 9 AM for half an hour for 4 days, and 2 x 45 minutes on shower days. In the evenings, Monday to Friday, around 7 PM for 30 minutes to help me get ready for bed. More hours may become available in the near future. Due to my location, access to your own vehicle is required.

The hourly rate will be £12/hour with paid annual leave of 5.6 weeks pro rata. A suitable PVG is required.

If this sounds good to you, please apply below using reference SCES1016. I look forward to hearing from you.
