A Personal Assistant will need to be patient when supporting me on shopping trips and be happy to offer support around making decisions without telling me what to buy. My M.E condition is variable, I have good days and bad days. This means I do not have a set routine and a Personal Assistant will need to be comfortable with the ‘every day is different’ approach which may mean some days you will have to work on your own.
