Seeking a compassionate and diligent individual to provide versatile support for an older couple. This would include a broad range of responsibilities such as bathing assistance, facilitating range of motion exercises, housekeeping duties such as laundry, cleaning bathrooms, vacuuming and dish washing. Besides, there would be potential grocery shopping and errands and potentially planning visits, outings, and trips to visit neighbors, friends and family members. You may also need to accompany them to appointments at times. It's essential that you are reliable and able to work from Monday to Sunday, mainly during the middle of the day and in the evening, amounting to approximately 30 to 40 hours per week.
While a driver's license isn't required (though ideal), a willingness to work with or have experience with Dementia and Diabetes is essential. Candidates with previous senior care or health care roles would be highly desirable, although full training will be provided to ensure you understand the particular needs of this couple.
The post is full-time, part-time and does not require living in or use of an automobile (though preferable). We seek someone who is dedicated, resilient, and adaptable, able to provide the necessary and flexible support based on their needs. The preferred start date is 04.04.2024. However, we are ready to negotiate for the candidate fitting well with the couple and showing a solid understanding of their needs and routine.
If you have a deep respect and patience for the elderly and enjoy helping others, this role could be an excellent fit for you. Kindly get in touch with us, detailing your suitability and qualifications for this role. Looking forward to receiving your application.
