**Personal Assistant Lewes**

I am looking for experienced Personal Assistants to join my small team to assist me in my day-to-day life. I’m 22 and live at home with my parents in Lewes. I have cerebral palsy, use a wheelchair, and have visual impairment and epilepsy. I require two personal assistants to support me at all times. I have a good sense of humour and love music, dancing and clothes. I want to be as independent as possible and making decisions about my day-to-day life is important for me. I enjoy getting out, meeting people and having fun, going shopping or to gigs and music festivals, trips to the pub and socialising with friends. I go to regular art and drama classes and have weekly physio and hydrotherapy sessions.

If you are a cheerful, enthusiastic person who is reliable, enjoys working as part of a team, and can support me to live life to the full, then we would love to hear from you.

Full time roles available.

Weekend, some weekday shifts, and night shifts are available.

Weekday shifts (12 hours); weekend shifts (10hrs) and nights (9hrs).

Enhanced Personal Assistant rate: £14.01; weekend rate: £16.

Nights: £16 (m-f); £18 (weekend).

5.6 weeks annual leave per year (pro rata).

Specialist training is included.

- Helping me plan my week.
- Taking me out to classes, shopping, going to the pub.
- Taking to appointments and supporting me to communicate with health professionals.

- Assisting with my physiotherapy programme.
- Assisting with personal care.
- Medication administration.

- Helping with my laundry and keeping my bedroom and bathroom clean and tidy.

**Essential**
- Previous experience / understanding of complex conditions such as dysphagia, dystonia, epilepsy.

- Calm, relaxed and predictable manner as this will help me regulate my dystonia (muscle spasms).
- UK driving license.
- Enhanced DBS check.
- Up to date COVID-19 vaccinations.
- Able to work well within a team.
- Excellent practices around infection control. PPE (masks) worn indoors.
