Job Responsibilities

As a personal assistant, you support individuals in their daily lives, and your work is largely independent, together with the individual in their environment. As a personal assistant, you work to create conditions and want to develop the individual's participation and independence in everyday life. In your work, you provide support and services according to the individual's decisions and needs, as well as established implementation plans. You work with social documentation according to existing laws and guidelines.

The personal assistance is based on the individual's needs and may therefore vary. We work from a salutogenic approach - each individual develops their resources and has a meaningful everyday life. Our goal is to continuously improve the quality of our services.

In the unit, there are team leaders and support pedagogues to assist other staff. We offer a good introduction, ongoing professional development, and actively work together to create a good working environment.

Personal suitability is crucial for the position, and to succeed as a personal assistant, we see that you have a user focus and a commitment to the target group.

Qualifications

For the job, you need to be flexible and confident in yourself. You have a genuine interest in working with people. Working hours vary.

Being attentive and having a flexible approach is important in the role of a personal assistant, as well as your ability to motivate and meet each person based on their conditions. The implementation plan, where the individual's needs are the focus, is our primary working tool, and as a personal assistant, you have great opportunities to tailor support for each individual. We expect you to feel comfortable taking responsibility and initiative.

We see that you have completed high school education and work experience. It is an advantage if you have previous experience working with the target group, and it is desirable that you have relevant education for the position, such as completed training as a nursing assistant, child and leisure program, or other education deemed equivalent by the employer.

We naturally expect you to promote the individual's integrity, participation in everyday life, and that your work is carried out with respect for the user's self-determination.
