PA for a young lady, 6 hrs a week (3hrs Fri PM@£13.23/hr, 3hrs Weekends@£16.54/hr) in LS25
My name is Chloe and I'm a happy 28 years old, but despite my age I am a vulnerable individual and require a lot of support when I'm out and about. I have the genetic condition Di George Syndrome which I was born with. This means I have learning disabilities and have scoliosis. I also have a heart valve missing which requires future surgery. This sometimes makes me breathless.
I enjoy being occupied and I love being taken out and being entertained. I am very easily occupied and enjoy socialising, chatting, going for a coffee, bowling, cinema, theatre, shopping...in fact, just going out somewhere.
I don't have many dislikes but can be overwhelmed by new situations and when things are out of my control. I also can get overwhelmed in crowded and busy situations.
I enjoy the company of my family, including my Aunt and Uncle, my Grandma and my little nephews as well as my Brother and Sister.
I am familiar with using public transport and perfectly independent in personal hygiene and toileting. No administration of medication shall be required.
