About the Personal Assistant Job As a personal assistant, you will work closely with a person with a disability in their daily life.

Your workplace will be wherever the customer is, and your tasks primarily involve assisting the customer to enable them to live the life they desire. Work Tasks Your tasks depend on the customer's needs and lifestyle. The customer enjoys moving quickly and racing around in their wheelchair, so it's important that you as an assistant can keep up with their pace. You will accompany the customer on walks and visit playgrounds and other places they like. The customer has poor vision and therefore needs your help describing their surroundings: what you and others are doing, preparing for sounds you know might be scary, helping the customer see and experience things together with you. The customer uses their other senses to compensate for their limited vision: taste, touch, hearing, and smell. The customer uses a wheelchair that they drive independently indoors. We are Looking for Someone Who: We seek someone who is responsible, attentive, and quick to learn new tasks. It's crucial that you as an assistant are calm and patient to best help the customer progress in training and development.
