Personal Assistant / Rehab Support (Hull)
15 hours per week | Up to £22.50/hr | Direct Payments (self‑employed preferred)
We’re looking for a kind, reliable Personal Assistant to support a young dad recovering from stroke. This is a positive, rehab‑focused role supporting independence, family life, and recovery — not traditional care alone.
Current support needs (honest picture):
* Daily help getting safely in/out of the shower
* Occasional help washing one arm, passing items, or dressing if fatigued
* Most meals currently prepared to support pacing and recovery (working towards independence)
* Encouragement with rehab exercises, mobility, pacing and routine
* Support re‑engaging with normal life — cooking, music, walking, outings
* Some supervision/support in his dad role if fatigue or mobility make things harder (toddler at home)
About James:
Motivated, funny, creative and determined to recover. Fatigue is his biggest limiter, but he’s improving steadily and wants support that promotes independence, confidence and normal life again.
We’d love someone who is:
* Warm, patient and emotionally intelligent
* Flexible around fatigue day‑to‑day
* Comfortable encouraging rehab and independence
* Happy working around family life
* Healthcare / therapy students very welcome (not essential)
Practical bits:
* Around 15 hrs/week initially (flexible)
* Up to £22.50/hr depending on experience
* Paid via Direct Payments
* Self‑employed/sole trader preferred (manage own tax/insurance)
✨ This role is about helping someone rebuild life after stroke — it genuinely matters.
