About the Employer

I am an 19yr old girl seeking a Personal Health Care Assistant(s) to join my existing team of PHCAs at home. I have Cerebral Palsy, Dystonia, Epilepsy and I also have a tracheostomy, but I do not let my health needs define me, and I enjoy living my life to the fullest, I just need extra help to achieve this.

I live at home with my Mum, Dad, 2 sisters and 2 well behaved dogs. I’m a very sociable person and known as a bit of thrill seeker, I’m certainly not as fragile as some people may assume. I’m generally always looking for the next new experience and I like to be busy with activities and events, but I also love to chill at home. I love art, music, cooking, shopping and socialising (including mocktails in town!). I love the outdoors, watching movies and I’m a huge Disney fan!
