Are you kind, dependable, and looking for a role where you can genuinely help someone live well each day? We're looking for one or two Personal Assistants to join a small and supportive care team for a warm, independent-minded woman who values her autonomy and enjoys the comfort of her own home.
This is a great opportunity to be part of a thoughtful, person-centred approach to care.
Your role will include:
* Assisting with meal preparation for lunch and tea, and offering gentle encouragement to help manage fatigue.
* Helping with household tasks to keep her home clean, comfortable, and safe.
* Supporting her nutrition and hydration needs, by preparing meals and drinks she enjoys.
* Encouraging her to stay active and confident in her daily routine, while offering support when needed.
* Working in partnership with her son, who is actively involved in her care and helps with shopping.
* Respecting and nurturing her connection with family members, which she maintains mostly through phone calls.
A few more things to know:
* The family is looking into private physiotherapy at home to support her mobility goals.
* There's flexibility around meal times—no need to stick to a strict schedule.
* You'll be joining an existing part-time PA to provide extra support where it's most needed.
If you're someone who finds joy in helping others, values respect and dignity in care, and enjoys working in a calm, home-based setting, this could be the perfect role for you.
We'd love to hear from you
