I am the employer and father to my son who is physically impaired and has a diagnosis of Cerebral Palsey. My son is confined to a wheelchair and is non verbal, however he is able to communicate through, sounds, gestures and using his eyes. Our home is fully adapted with internal hoist and track and a floor lift for his wheelchair from the ground floor to upper floor, allowing ease to move around the house. My son receives PA support from his dedicated PA who provides a befriending role, companionship, social activities and support in the home, allowing me a break from my caring role and providing him care and most importantly activities that stimulate and interest him. My son has a great sense of humour, he enjoys the company of others and enjoys being busy. He particularly likes lego with a huge collection completed, crafts, crosswords and board games. My son requires support with personal care, assistance with feeding/drinking We are seeking a PA to join our team as a casual employee initially, allowing time to build trust and a relationship to compliment the current support team. This will allow for our permanent PA time off/holidays from her role. There is the option of more permanent hours available in the longer term if the successful candidate is suited to the position. The PA would be required to offer companionship and social activities, Personal care and some general food preparation for lunches/snacks.
