I am looking for a PA for my youngest daughter who is 16 years old.
She has an unbalanced translocation of chromosomes 7&9 which results in her being dependant on a carer for many daily living tasks. More information on these can be found in the job description for PA position JB VCL, which can be downloaded by clicking here.
This role would be ideal for someone with an interest in nursing or special education, someone who is patient and kind but working with my daughter can not only be rewarding but fun too. She’s a delightful young girl with a wicked sense of humour who is very affectionate.
I am looking for someone to fill a 0-hour contract to offer cover for holiday and sickness. Previous experience with supporting disabled individuals is essential for this role as training opportunities may be inconsistent. The rate of pay is £14.87 per hour.
Shifts would include giving my daughter a shower and putting her pyjamas on at the end of the shift.
Applications from female applicants only. This is a genuine occupational requirement.
Membership, or willingness to join, the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) scheme is essential. Membership of the PVG scheme will be mandatory by April 2025.
The ability to drive, and be over the age of 25 for insurance purposes, would be beneficial.
Applications, by CV and covering letter, can be sent to PAjobs@lothiancil.org.uk quoting reference code JB VCL.
