Purpose of Job

Our son is a loving and creative 12-year-old boy who likes to draw and make clay models of his favourite characters. He likes to go for beach and woodland walks. He also likes swimming, trampolining, and soft play activities. He does have his little quirks and challenges like most children with ASD, like his autism rituals that he likes to do when transitioning. He doesn’t like to be rushed so patience is vital but once he has done his little rituals, he is fine to transition.

He can be vocal, and his speech is getting better, but he mainly uses his choice book when requesting his wants and needs. He doesn’t have much sense of danger so needs the extra support when transitioning from one place to another, near roads, etc. Ideally, his PAs would enjoy walking, trampolining and swimming so that he can participate in these activities. It is a must that his PAs are enthusiastic with a genuine interest and enjoyment in working with children. This will mostly be for weekends and school holidays where he can enjoy an activity.

This will be 2 to 1 support role so will require working alongside another PA. Being a car driver is essential so that he can be transported safely, and mileage will be reimbursed at 0.45p per mile.

This post is subject to a satisfactory DBS check and references which will be taken up if you are offered the post.

Car driver essential

 

I am a 40-year-old woman seeking a Personal Assistant (PA) to support me due to an energy-limiting disability. The role is focused on assisting me with some aspects of everyday life and supporting me to be an active parent to my 6-year-old son. My husband is also registered as my carer and at times the PA will provide support while he’s working or having respite.

 

Summary of role:

This is a permanent post available for immediate start, with an allowance of 5.6 weeks annual leave.

Shifts would be negotiated with plenty of notice and some flexibility, usually within the following pattern:

Hold a clean UK driving licence and be confident driving me and my son to places. (It’s not necessary for the PA to have their own vehicle as I will insure them on my car).

 

Each month:

4 hours of supporting me as a parent on a Saturday or Sunday. This could be negotiated as one shift or two.

In school holidays the above is usually adjusted, so more of the hours are used for supporting me as a parent and less is used for household tasks. Sometimes more hours are available in school holidays depending on family circumstances.

 

This post is subject to a satisfactory DBs check and references which will be taken up if you are offered the post.

There is a genuine occupational requirement for the holder of this post to be male/female in accordance with the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 and Equality Act 2010 schedule 9 paragraphs 1 – 4.
