Care and Support Assistant - FT

I have some disability and illness and a wheelchair user when out of the home. I like to be as independent as possible, given my personal circumstances, but require support both inside and outside of my home to achieve this

I need help and support with personal care, shopping, paperwork and online shopping, housework, preparing meals and helping me achieve my daily tasks.

I like to see the positive in every day experiences, enjoy living in the countryside and immerse myself in various hobbies, including being in the garden.

If you are the kind of person that is compassionate, organised and loves helping people, as well as willing to 'get stuck in', then I would like to hear from you.

You need to be a car driver as I am about 7 miles from both Leominster and Tenbury.

Why not send me your CV illustrating your capabilities, training received and what you find important to feel fulfilled at work.

About Direct Payments

Direct payments are available from Local Authorities for people who have a care and support plan in place following a social care assessment. An amount of money is allocated to purchase the assistance and care needed to live independently.

I should stress that I will be your employer and have a support service which assists me in meeting my responsibilities as an employer.

I pay above the minimum rate to account for out-of-town driving and this is paid through payroll. The hours to be discussed which will be around 24 - 32 hours per month.
