Rawtenstall, United Kingdom Private Client Direct Payments Full time

**Personal Assistant: One 2 One Support**

Driving Licence Required

An amazing opportunity has emerged for a compassionate and kind-hearted person to assist a bright and polite man in his thirties who has a significant physical disability and depends on his wheelchair for his mobility needs.

The role offers flexibility and necessitates a commitment of 10 hours per week on Tuesdays and Thursdays, starting from 9:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. Additional hours will be available as requested with prior notice.

This presents an excellent chance that enables you to work within nursery and school hours, making it a perfect fit for mothers seeking a work-life balance to effectively manage their childcare responsibilities.

You will assist the service user with light household tasks, daily activities, running errands, and visiting exciting outings of his choice. Additionally, you will play a crucial role in providing all aspects of personal care.

The duties will be carried out in a quiet, clean, and safe home environment where the service user lives with his mother. You will work separately from his main carer, who provides her support on separate occasions.

Applicants must be at least 25 years old and hold a valid, clean UK driving licence to operate the vehicle, insured by the employer's insurance policy provided.

We are looking for applicants who have care, patience, courtesy, honesty, flexibility, alertness, consistency, common sense, dedication, reliability, and punctuality.

It is crucial to have the essential qualities in order to adequately support the service user's well-being, quality of life, and healthcare needs.

You will support the service user in accessing daily outings to attractions, seaside resorts, park walks, museums, aquariums, garden centres, cafes, and other places of interest.

The necessary training will be provided by the employer. If required, applicants must be willing to undergo a DBS check, and the cost will be paid for.

To apply, applicants must reside in Hyndburn, Blackburn, and Rossendale, or within a 12-mile radius of the service user's property located in Accrington.
