DPSS485 - Personal Assistant - 4 hours per week - Sandfields

I am a 19 year old Autistic lady living in the Sandfields area of Port Talbot.  I am looking for a personal assistant to support me out in the community and support me with life skills.  I love going out in the car for a drive, going to Starbucks and going down to the beach. Most of my time with the PA will be spent driving round places I enjoy, and sitting with me in the car when we are there. I can be very anxious so will need some reassurance when out in the community and need someone who can hold a conversation with me and put me at ease.  Routine is massively important to me. As my autism affects me in different ways I would prefer to have a PA with some experience of supporting young adults with Autism.  

4 hours per week to be used as 2 x 2 hour sessions either:

Before 2pm on a Mon, Tues, Wed or

Before 4pm on Thurs to Sunday.

Days are flexible.

DPSS703 - Personal Assistant - 22 hours per week - Baglan

I am a 27 man living in the Baglan area with my family, cats and dog. 

I am very quiet and would like a PA to help me build my confidence and support me to access the community to do the things I enjoy. I experience Catatonia, which means I am mostly non-verbal, and will nod/ shake my head, and use texts to communicate with you. Over a long time, and once I have gotten to know you, I may speak to you verbally. I can also experience episodes of being “frozen” to the spot. The PA will need to have an awareness of Catatonia and be able to support me with this. I can also become withdrawn and in a low mood.

I enjoying watching wrestling, going on the bus, crazy golf, bowling, quad biking, gaming, playing pool, going for food, to the gym, swimming and for a walk (not too far). I love Marvel and going to the Cinema. I would like a PA to support me with these and with possibly attending community groups such as Gardening, Travel Training and Social Groups. 

The PA will need to support me with managing my money when out, and with using the toilet and continence aid changes if needed. The PA may also need to support me with meal preparation specific to my diet, and help me develop “life skills” such as cooking at home. The PA will need to undergo First Aid training as I am at high risk of choking.

I do not need a walking aid, but I will need to PA to risk assess the area to ensure my safety.

22 hours per week

This will start very slowly, with a few hours a week, so I can get used to you. Then building up to the full 22 hours. Days and times are flexible, though the start would be after 11am.
