Summary

We are looking for a kind, understanding and reliable Personal Assistant (PA) to provide 4 hours of support per week to an individual in their own home and when attending appointments.

The individual has OCD and ADHD, as well as chronic fatigue, chronic pain and a sleep disorder. Their energy, mobility and support needs can vary from day to day, so we are looking for someone who is flexible, patient and able to adapt their approach according to their needs.

Afternoons are generally preferred; however, the timing of support may need to vary depending on the individual's sleep schedule, energy levels and appointments. The successful applicant will therefore need to be able to offer some flexibility.
