Skip to 0 minutes and 3 seconds Personal assistance or PA is where disabled people living in the community are supported by workers who they employ directly. Usually, the disabled person is funded by their local authority to pay their workers themselves. PA is not the same as care. It’s about Independent Living. On this course, you will learn all about PA. Our training is suitable whether you are a disabled person, wanting to employ workers, or a care worker, wanting to work as a personal assistant.
