to apply for the job
We are looking for you who want to work on a fixed schedule with me!
Who am I?
My name is Carl and I was born in May last year with a rare diagnosis. We live in an apartment in central Gothenburg where we spend most of our time, but we also have a house in Lidköping that we visit every other weekend and during holidays. As my assistant, you will support and follow my development in several areas. I will need help from both you with a lot of experience in care and support, but also give an opportunity to those of you with a junior profile who still have a big heart and curiosity. We develop together with experienced and new assistants during our shared journey.
This is what a day with me might look like:
Since I am a small child, I need close care and support for my needs. Due to congenital breathing difficulties, I have a tracheostomy (trach) implanted that requires constant supervision and care. I enjoy cuddling and feel safe in company. I snuggle with my parents and like to go for walks in my stroller. With me, there are always two assistants working as I need someone who sees me all the time and interprets my signals about what I need help with. Much of my care is also routine-based, but you will learn that during your introduction and as you get to know my needs. You will accompany me on my journey in the early stages of life, which will also include future hospital visits and surgeries.
Who are you?
With me, you need to be a secure person who respects and is curious and attentive to my needs. You are responsible and can easily adapt to routines in speech and writing. Communication needs to be clear and smooth, as acute situations may arise that need to be resolved in an effective and safe manner. We would like you to have experience or be studying for a care or rescue service profession, but above all, that you have an interest in me as a small child and want to learn new things. If you can use some sign language as support, that is a big plus, but it is not a requirement. We are now looking for someone with a bit more experience in care or as an assistant. If you have a nursing assistant education or equivalent, that is an advantage. We need you to contribute to the development and competence of the current workgroup.
About the position:
Day/evening, 21 hours of employment on average per week on a rolling 4-week schedule. The working hours vary but are usually from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM for day shifts and from 3 PM to 10 PM for evening shifts.
In addition to the working shifts, the position also includes being on-call according to a schedule about once a week. Being on-call means that for a few hours, you are reachable by phone and ready to step in and work if a colleague gets sick. The on-call shifts are either from 7 AM to 11 AM (for day shift cover) or from 3 PM to 7 PM (for evening shift cover).
The position starts on February 2, 2026. However, employment will occur before that as you will be scheduled for shadowing and trach training. Passal Assistans offers a rewarding and varied job with good employment conditions, training, and wellness benefits. Fixed hourly wage according to agreement and other compensations according to collective agreements. You will also receive good support and contact with the assistance manager.
You who apply for this position must be able to present a valid ID such as a passport or national ID (driver's license is not valid) and an extract from the criminal record at the time of the interview. If you are not a citizen of Sweden, the EU, EEA, or Switzerland, you must be able to present a valid work permit or permanent residence permit to work with us.

At Passal Assistans, it is important that everyone feels like part of the whole, that everyone realizes their significance. Our vision is a society and a daily life where everyone has the freedom to live fully. We see personal assistance as a way to achieve that vision.
