Join to apply for the Live-in Care / Lifestyle Assistant - Oxford Brooks Student role at Skook Management Consulting
About Our Client
Our client is in her 3rd year at Oxford Brookes University studying Digital Marketing. She has Cerebral Palsy and is a full-time wheelchair user. She has a great sense of humour and doesnt take life too seriously. She enjoys watching Ice Hockey and Netflix whilst leading an active social life by meeting up with friends and family.
With a joyful and delightful persona, she is keen to experience the full University life, going to pubs, clubs and live music events.
As written by her: I dont take life too seriously and would like someone I can have a laugh with. I will always ask for your help if I need it so just assume if I dont ask Im ok. Most of the time when Im just hanging out at home I like to be left alone to do my own thing, so you will also get to do your own thing as long as I know you\'re around so I can call for help if needed. I can walk short distances so this is how I get around indoors and I have an electric wheelchair which I use to get around when I go out. I would need my career to assist me in most aspects of daily life such as getting dressed, preparing my food, showering and helping me when Im out and about (e.g. shopping). But most importantly I need you to be comfortable to come out and socialise with me and my friends, I especially enjoy going to concerts and theatre shows. I also go to watch ice hockey most Sundays in Oxford and I would need my carer to come with me and help me with anything I may need whilst Im there.
