Title:

DPSS668 - COVER Personal Assistant - 12 hours per week - Sandfields

Description:

I am an 85 year old gentleman living in the Sandfields area with my wife and cat. I used to enjoy playing golf and I currently attend a walking football group. I enjoy watching golf, darts and football on the TV. 

I am looking for a cover PA to support me to access the groups that I attend.

I am a laid back gentleman, and I take my time when processing information and replying in conversation. The PA would need to be patient and understanding of this.

I have Parkinsons, Dementia, COPD and can suffer with depression and anxiety. My conditions mean I have reduced mobility and coordination, and I am at risk of falls. I use a wheelchair as both a walking aid and to sit in when I get tired, so my PA would need to push my wheelchair when this happens. The PA would either be able to use their own car, or drive my mobility car which is an automatic. The PA will need to prompt me with time sensitive medication.
