We are looking for a friendly, lively and confident Personal Assistant to support a lovely young man who is happy, energetic and focused. He enjoys music, eating out, picnics, walks and swimming, and would benefit from someone who can build a positive, trusting one-to-one working relationship with him.
The role will involve providing support with personal care, including toileting, showering or bathing, getting in and out of bed, and getting dressed.

You will encourage socialisation, friendships and independence, while helping him take part in activities he enjoys. He loves water and may also enjoy watering the garden.
The young man has cognitive, learning and mental health needs. He is non-verbal but can make his needs and wishes known. The successful applicant will need to be patient, attentive and able to communicate in a supportive and respectful way.
Only candidates aged 18 or over should apply, as the role includes administering medication.
The individual’s needs may vary from day to day, so tasks may change and you may be required to carry out other duties that are reasonably needed. You will be responsible for ensuring the individual’s safety at all times, reporting any accidents immediately, and reporting any defects or hazards that could give rise to an accident.
