Do you want to work as a personal assistant and add a golden touch to people's lives? In this role, you will make a difference in people's lives and work with us towards our vision – Everyone has the right to a good life. Personal assistance is a service according to LSS (The Act on Support and Service for Certain Disabled Persons).

I communicate using picture cards and my eye computer. You will need to assist me with personal care and support me in my daily activities. You need to be reliable and have a genuine interest in helping me in my everyday life.
