About the position

I am a 32-year-old girl living with my dog about 15-20 minutes outside of Växjö in my own apartment. I have a complete spinal cord injury, hearing impairment, and I use a breathing machine. I am looking for someone who wants to work part-time, about 75%, and also someone who can work during the absence of regular assistants due to vacation or illness.

No specific education is required to work with me. However, if you have the willingness to learn, you will receive introductions to ensure both you and I feel safe. It is important for me to understand that you are here to help me and not to take care of me. I need a lot of help but try to be as independent as possible, so you need to let me be that.

You also need to be able to take a more passive role when I do not need help. If I need help, I will ask for it. Sometimes I am quiet and withdrawn, so please do not pressure me during those times as we all have bad days. You also need to be flexible and spontaneous. You should also dare to ask questions and test things out; I will let you know if something goes wrong. You also need to be physically strong as manual transfers and lifts are required. A ceiling lift is available but it does not always work. Swedish is required for speaking to understand and hear what I say since I have a hearing impairment.

Various aids are available such as shower chairs, electric wheelchairs, catheters, and tube feeding.

Requirements: Non-smoker, not allergic to dogs or cats, manual driving license to be able to drive the client's car.

Working hours: 08.00-22.00 and 22.00-08.00 (Awake night) weekdays and weekends.

Start date: Selection is ongoing and the position may be filled before the application deadline.

Extent: 1 position 75%. 1-2 substitutes as needed.

Salary: We apply individual salary setting. Other compensations in accordance with collective agreements.

To be employed, you need to have a Bank-ID. Many of our clients also require you to have ordered a criminal record to present upon potential employment. To facilitate this, you can apply for the record via the following link (this record is used for all our employments): Work with children with disabilities (https://polisen.se/tjanster-tillstand/belastningsregistret/barn-med-funktionsnedsattning/)
