I am looking to recruit experienced Personal Health Care Assistants to join a small team who enable me to live independently in my adapted home in Sittingbourne, Kent.

I am a man in my 60s with a high spinal cord injury and need support with safe moving and handling, personal care, preparation and cooking of meals, as well as health care tasks such as stoma and catheter care, for which training will be provided.

I’m keen to employ someone that is reliable, trustworthy, conscientious, and able to use their own initiative.

Working as a Personal Health Care Assistant differs from other care roles. You’ll be supporting me with all aspects of daily life. If you feel that the role of a Personal Health Care Assistant is for you, I’d like to hear from you.
