PA Support Required for Gentleman in the Freshwater Area – 7 Hours Per Week (SM 149845)

We are seeking a compassionate, patient, and reliable Personal Assistant (PA) to support a gentleman living in Freshwater, for 7 hours per week.

The gentleman enjoys reading, visiting the library, and looking at engineering magazines. He likes a calm, structured routine and appreciates clear explanations and support that is given at a gentle pace. He dislikes sudden changes, rushed communication, or situations where he feels pressured or confused.

He requires support with organising his home, planning and completing shopping, accessing the community, attending the library, managing simple paperwork, and staying on top of day to day tasks. He will need support with organising his prescriptions and managing his GP appointments.

He also needs supportive companionship and someone who can help him follow a simple routine that feels predictable and safe. His interests include books, engineering, practical tasks, and calm community outings.

Support should be given in a consistent, respectful, and reassuring manner, with the same person visiting each week to help build trust and confidence.

The gentleman has Alzheimer’s disease, which affects his memory, insight, and ability to plan or organise daily activities. He needs someone who can break tasks down into small steps, help him stay focused, and support him safely when out in the community.
