PA/Companion for 90year old lady in Binstead

We’re looking for 1 or 2 caring, friendly people to support a wonderful 90-year-old lady who has dementia and dysphagia but also a fantastic sense of humour and a real love of company.

About the role:

Shift: Tea time, 5.30 pm–7.30 pm Monday - Friday (every other Thursday)

Care level: Light assistance – mainly helping her enjoy her food (ice cream!), making a cup of tea, helping her change into her nightie (she just needs help with removing her jumper), and keeping her company.

After that, it’s simply quality time together.

She loves Sudoku, crosswords, colouring, birdwatching, and a good chat.

If you’re patient, cheerful, and enjoy good conversation, this could be a really rewarding couple of hours in your day.
