**Personal Support Assistant - Evening Lifestyle Companion for a Disabled Adult**
We are recruiting on behalf of our client, a 32-year-old professional, who is looking for a like-minded person to join their care team. Join their team of PAs who provide their personal care and independent living support. This is a great opportunity to make a positive impact on a persons life.
**Start**:ASAP
**Hours**: Approx 9-10 hours p/w (Flexibility required)
**Location**: Maidenhead (SL6)
**Pay**: £12 p/h
**Holidays**: 5.6 weeks holiday pro rata
**A Clean Automatic Driving licence is required for this position as you will be required to drive the client’s adapted vehicle.**
**About the Job**:
This is a fantastic opportunity to make a positive difference in somebody else’s life. Our client is confident in his ability and lives in his family home with the support of like-minded individuals to assist him with:
- Personal Care
- Social Support
- Daily Living
- Commuting
- Transportation, driving the client to and from the events and staying with them throughout.
**About our Client**:
The client is a full-time wheelchair user who has cerebral palsy. His needs during the daytime are being met, however there are sometimes activities/group sessions in the evening that his care package does not currently cover.
We are looking for someone who can provide additional support for an evening, for approximately 9-10 hours per week, over the course of 2-3 evenings.
Some of the events take place on a regularly scheduled time and day where help would always be required at the same time. Others may be on a changing schedule, or events that are planned spontaneously on an ad hoc basis. The client would always try to give 1 week's notice for most events but there may be occasions where these are planned with shorter notice where help would still be appreciated. It is understood that this will not always be possible, however, flexibility in this regard would be appreciated highly.
The main responsibilities of this role would be providing transportation, driving the client to and from the events and staying with them throughout. The client is largely independent throughout the course of the event, though there may be some additional responsibilities such as providing them with a drink or assisting with other small tasks that may be physically challenging, however, these are infrequent and not likely to be challenging.
Personal care will be limited within this role, the only related task may involve helping the client to access the toilet.
Some of the evening activities may be charity sessions/talks where interactions from the Personal Assistant will be limited. Sometimes they may involve going to events such as watching a show or film which the PA will be welcome to enjoy also.
**Qualifications and Requirements**:
- Clean Automatic driving license (Essential)
- Confident driver as you will be expected to drive the client’s van
- Excellent sense of humour and ability to not take life too seriously
- Physical fitness, patience, and a caring nature
- Strong communication and listening skills
- Mature and responsible attitude
- Fluent in English
- Clean and tidy appearance
**Training and Development**: Full training in the client's particular needs will be provided, making this an ideal opportunity for individuals without previous care experience. You will also have on-call support from our client coordinator team.
