Job overview

Are you reliable and enjoy a chat? Then I am looking for you.

I am a young 64-year-old lady that lives near Stranraer with my husband. I am well looked after by my fabulous Personal Assistant and my amazing husband. I am however looking for someone to work 1 day per week to provide additional respite care to allow my husband to recharge his batteries. Holiday and sickness cover is required from the Personal Assistant.

I have been living with Brain Cancer for several years resulting in word finding difficulties, weakness down my right side and chronic fatigue especially during the afternoons. I am looking for someone that is reliable, patient and enjoys a chat. I am non-ambulant so you would be expected to make transfers via a Sara Stedy as necessary and prepare and serve light meals as necessary. If covering holidays or sickness working arrangements are based around a 7 hour day (Mon-Fri). Experience isn’t essential for this role. A suitable PVG is required but don’t worry if you don’t have one, I can support you in getting one.

Females only need apply as permitted under Schedule 9, part 1 of the Equality Act 2010

Please note Capability Scotland isn’t the employer we are only acting on behalf of our client. The client will be the employer.

If this sounds like you, then please use reference DWBC100 when applying. I look forward to hearing from you.
