I am a man with Cerebral Palsy and have deteriorated in my ability to care for myself since before my retirement in 1994, this deterioration has continued to such an extent that I can no longer physically do anything for myself and therefore require assistance with almost every aspect of my life whilst still remaining in control of my life with the assistance and co-operation from my wife, Edna.
I am looking for a Personal Assistant to cover periods of holiday and sickness, as well as occasional Sundays. The role includes assistance with meal and bedtime routines. Training will be given where necessary.
