Rate: £13.00 per hour

Area: Central Newcastle

I am looking for Personal Assistants who are reliable and friendly. This is a great opportunity to support me with personal care, food preparation, shopping, and housework.

I have an extremely weakened immune system and I am extremely vulnerable to infection; my Personal Assistant must be fully trained in Infection Control and practice the highest hygiene regime to maximize my safety and welfare. Frequent hand washing and face masks are always required. My home needs to be kept extremely clean and free from dirt and dust and I require my Personal Assistant to clinically clean my home under my direction to prevent infection.  My home does not need to be a sterile environment, but it does need to be as germ free as possible. You would be required to remove outdoor shoes and coats upon entry to my home to minimize transferable germs.

Ideally you would have your own car and a clean licence, so we can go shopping locally together or to any appointments I may be required to attend.

It would be perfect if my PA’s do not have a cat or dog as I have an allergy to both.

Must be warm and gentle.

For more information please see Job Description_

The job will be subject to DBS checks and references. The successful candidate will have had or be willing to have their Covid-19 vaccinations.

This post is exempt under the Equality Act 2010 schedule 9 paragraphs 1 – 4.
