**Personal Assistant for Disabled Academic P/T £12.50/hr in Bristol**:
**About Me**:
I am a busy academic who is currently working from home. I live in Bristol, am vegan, and live with two rabbits and one human. I like reading books, knitting, running, playing board games, and watching science fiction. I had a liver transplant as a child, for which I take immunosuppression; this means I become unwell often. I am anxious and have high-stress levels regarding managing my health, workload and daily living, and I need support to stay on track.

**About the Role**:
This role is broadly divided into tasks regarding time management, workload management, healthcare management, and other general support.
This is a hybrid role. I am looking for someone who can check-in with me at the start and end of my working day. You can work from home where possible. These check-ins could be done remotely, with occasional in-person errands and tasks; this may change as what is required for a particular day could change; for example, there could be a hospital appointment.
The following is a list of essential tasks involved in this role. Please read the following and confirm that you are confident that you can fulfil all tasks listed.

- Set reminders for all appointments
- Ensure sufficient time is allocated for exercise every day
- Assign time for task completion using task management software, ensuring time for breaks and social activities
- Support me to maintain a good work-life balance

**Workload Management**
- Support the workload by breaking down large tasks into specific components to be completed, booking appropriate time for task completion and following up to provide accountability and support for any barriers
- Support for managing a long-term plan and working towards those goals incrementally, for example, publishing a paper
- Support for a realistic assessment of capability and time availability to ensure workload is kept manageable
- Support for keeping inbox at Zero as often as possible
- Support for keeping clear boundaries between work time and non-work time so that excessive working is avoided
- Keep detailed notes regarding task management so a current understanding of tasks is always available

**Healthcare Management
- Manage all medication stocks, and order new prescriptions from the pharmacy when required
- Support for getting to and from medical appointments (Desirable but not essential)
- Manage all medical appointments in the calendar whilst balancing workload and ensuring clear communication with relevant parties when needed, for example, when sick from work

**General Support**
- Managing support for completing domestic tasks
- Managing finances to ensure all bills are paid on time and support with budgeting
- Managing selling sites such as eBay, Vinted etc. Listing items, Communicating with buyers and posting articles
