Personal Assistants Wanted for Cheerful Man in Falkenberg, 75%

A cheerful man in central Falkenberg is looking for another person to work days, evenings, and every other weekend.

Working hours are according to a rolling schedule from 08:00 to 20:00.

The assistance is double around the clock – this means you never work alone, but always have a colleague by your side.

About the Assignment

I am a positive man in my 50s who previously lived an active life. Due to illness, I am now paralyzed with some mobility, but my goal is to come back – as much as possible, in my own way. Now I need help with all the practicalities of everyday life: transfers, meals, hygiene, household tasks, and so on.

You will be part of the team that helps me settle back at home and shape a new life, with dignity, security, and as much independence as possible.

Who Are We Looking For?

You may have previously worked in healthcare and/or as a personal assistant.

As a person, you are attentive, stable, and have a good sense of responsibility. You are observant, can read the atmosphere, and are not afraid of physical work. You notice when I am tired, when I am ready to go, and when I need you the most – without me always having to say it outright.

What Do We Offer?

Shifts during the day, evening, and weekends, from 08:00 to 20:00. Practical training in tracheostomy care and gastrostomy will be provided at the hospital. Positions will be filled when we find the right assistant, so if this sounds interesting, please submit your application.

The position starts as a part-time employment and may then transition to a fixed-term contract as long as the assistance assignment lasts, with a working degree of 75%.

A close and important job – where you really help make life possible for someone else.

There are good bus connections near the man's residence.

GIL has coordinated personal assistance since 1989. The cooperative has roots in the Independent Living movement, which is based on the principle that those with disabilities know best how they want to live their lives. Normally, the person entitled to assistance is the closest supervisor of the assistants, or a person with special knowledge about the individual is appointed.

As a personal assistant, you support a person with disabilities to live the life they want to live. To attract and retain competent and satisfied assistants, we invest in training and events. We believe that development and meeting others lead to motivated and secure assistants who enjoy and find it rewarding to work with us.
