Are You Looking to Hire a PA?

The idea is to help you maintain your independence and remain living within your own home. The option you choose depends on your needs and preference for employing services directly, and how much responsibility you wish to take on (i.e. employing a PA yourself) or using a care agency.

There are a number of processes you need to take when employing a PA. We have added these for you to read:
