What job can I have?

I'm a disabled person that can only use one arm and I need someone to assist me all day. This also involves hoisting me when I go to the bathroom.

Does anybody know any jobs where I could be assisted for my needs or any at home jobs?

    I imagine there are a few possible jobs that could be done. How are you on the phone? As I believe work-from-home call handling has become a lot more popular, less so than during covid of course but I can imagine it would still be a reasonable adjustment!

    I imagine quite a few office roles can be done with one arm, with adjustments, even in-office roles?

    @Jimm_Scope Thank you for the suggestion. I'm not confident into talking to people, especially on the phone. However, I it might boost my confidence into talking to other people.

    They are less common, but there are also "webchat" roles as well. Where you speak to someone in an instant chat instead of over the phone for customer service roles.
