Full job description

£1,697.85 per week, live-in carer for physically disabled lady, 48.

Start date: October 20th.

Week on / week off.

No experience required.

Hi, my name’s Kirsty, and I’m looking for a live-in carer. Born in 1978 with a condition called Spinal Muscular Atrophy (Type II), I have been in an electric wheelchair all my life. I have full feeling throughout my whole body but I have very limited strength in my muscles. I need a carer to help me live independently in my flat in Norwich.

What the job involves:

Personal care – all help with getting up, going to bed, hoisting, washing, dressing, toileting, etc (what I tell people who haven’t done this sort of work before is that whatever you do for yourself, I need doing for me).

Domestic – cooking (including meat), shopping, cleaning, washing, ironing, etc.

Maintenance – looking after the flat, garden, and disability equipment.

Driving – often dropping me off with friends / family and keeping yourself entertained whilst waiting with the car.

Facilitation – running errands, accompanying me on outings and trips away.

Hours:

I need somebody to be available at all times, therefore the position is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Carers are provided with their own bedroom, and all other facilities are shared only with myself. Working weeks are alternate, so you would be living with me for one week, Tuesday to Tuesday, then the following week you would go home to allow my other carer to move in for this time.

Other job info:

This is a PAYE position.

20 days paid annual holiday.

Full nest pension scheme.

Double pay on bank holidays.

Person specification:

Legal eligibility to work in the UK.

Excellent English.

Available for in-person interviews.

Full UK driving licence, comfortable behind the wheel of a small semi-automatic van (very occasionally 6-8 hours driving per day).

This is a ideally a long-term position. Due to the time and energy needed to recruit and train a Newby, an availability for work for a minimum of 6 months is required.

Good physical health – strong upper-body, and no history of back problems.

Flexibility – prepared to provide holiday cover and emergency cover on weeks off.

Sociable and friendly.

Good at keeping yourself entertained.

Boys or girls considered.

Experience is not a requirement, although you must be practical, and a fast learner.

The post is subject to the following:

- A satisfactory enhanced Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check, the cost of which will be covered by myself.

- Satisfactory references from two referees, one of which must be your current or most recent employer.

- Completion of a satisfactory probationary period of 3 months.

A bit more about me:

As we live together, the relationship between myself and my carers is obviously quite close. Therefore it is important that we get on well. Just so you get a bit of a better idea about who I am, here is some more stuff…

Family and friends – important to me. Love them and see them often.

I’m quite a happy person, and am not interested in sulkers. I consider myself to be a good communicator, and appreciate this in others.

I’ve got a degree in English Literature, and although I pretend to like reading, I think TV is better.

TV – love it, and watch far too much of it… favourites have been Slow Horses, Fleabag, House, Baby Reindeer, His Dark Materials, Sherlock, Spooks, Dexter, Suits, Utopia, Breaking Bad. I also enjoy a bit of Traitors, Strictly, Gogglebox, Bake Off, Alone, I’m a Celebrity, filthy reality TV, crime dramas, psychological thrillers, or a good documentary about weird stuff / people.

Food – I love cooking (as supervisory sous chef!), and eating out.

Music – Teddy Swims, Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran, Damien Rice, Jack Johnson, Lily Allen, Alex Warren, James, Killers, Mumford & Sons, the Lumineers, Paulo Nutini, Passenger, George Ezra, 60s, 80s, 90s Britpop, bit of cheese.

I have limited energy, so I’m quite a home / bed bunny. I very much like a laptop, and can spend hours pottering on one.

If you are interested, please send me a message telling me a bit about yourself. I’ll then get back in touch with any applicants who catch my eye, and if I shortlist you for an interview we can meet up to have a chat and get to know each other a bit better. Thanks for reading me, and I look forward to hearing from you…
