Personal care will be required for this role including nappy changes, assistance with feeding and drinking and support in dressing if required.

Sehrish is a happy, smiley little girl and loves painting and building things with her building blocks- she requires larger toys to play with due to her having difficulty with dexterity. She enjoys using her iPad and is a bit of an expert in accessing Spotify to listen to her favourite tunes. She currently loves “Free from Desire” where she can dance to the upbeat tune. Sehrish is looking for her PA to accompany her on trips to various venues and activities including the Alan Shearer Centre, Centre for Life, the Aquarium, and soft play centres, she would also enjoy the cinema and swimming.

Sehrish is on medication, but this is managed by her mum, and she also follows a Halal diet but has no allergies. It is important that this is adhered too at all times.

Due to the need to lift and carry Sehrish in and out of her wheelchair a good level of fitness is required and training under manual handling would be advantageous to you.
