About the Assignment:
Our client is a man with visual impairment and balance issues who needs help and support in his home. He requires assistance with all transfers and prefers to walk with you for support. For longer walks, he uses a wheelchair and needs support during hygiene situations. He also needs help preparing food and drinks and managing the dishes that cooking creates. He has a hearing impairment, making him most comfortable in quiet environments. The man lives in Hägersten, and there are good transport links to get there, but it is preferable if you live within walking distance.
Your Qualifications:
- You should be a calm person with clear speech.
- To assist the client safely during transfers, you need to be at least 160 cm tall.
- You have the ability to see what needs to be done and enjoy having a clean environment around you.
- Experience in guiding visually impaired individuals and assisting with transfers is a plus.
- It is also beneficial if you have experience in driving someone in a wheelchair.
About the Position:
2-3 shifts per week on weekdays, approximately 1.5 hours each. Shifts may be longer if the client is going out for an activity.
We have one assistant/companion and are now looking for another person to share this position. There may also be opportunities for more hours or to combine this position with other assignments.
