We are looking for a caring person to help a woman in her 60’s in the evenings. Her physical mobility is extremely limited and so she needs someone to cook, help with jobs around the home and help her get ready and comfortable for bed.
If you can help prepare and serve meals, understand the difference small details make to someone and handle the hands on support tasks that she needs your assistance with – this could be a great match! It is vital you can use your initiative to see what needs doing and are willing to listen and communicate if you don't understand what to do.
This job would suit someone who loves helping others and thrives on making a difference. Attention to the small details is essential to do a good job. Training on the job will be organised for the right applicant.
