Personal Assistant Wanted

Hello!

We are looking for someone to work as a personal assistant for me, a 21-year-old with multiple disabilities/wheelchair-bound. Your workplace will be where I spend my time, which is mostly at home with my parents and two cats. Travel may also occur to habilitation, hospitals, and during vacations.

Your duties include helping me with everything in daily life such as: hygiene and assistance with dressing/undressing. Help during meals/feeding, including some through a feeding tube. Mobility assistance with and sometimes without a lift. Training and stretching programs. Assistance with communication as I lack verbal speech and have visual impairment, as well as activities inside and outside the home.

You should have fairly good physical condition as there may be some heavy lifting and also enjoy being outdoors as daily walks are part of the job.

Very good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written, is a prerequisite for the job as I need help with communication and documentation is also part of the job.

I look forward to receiving an application from you who is:

• Active and responsible
• Flexible
• Can work independently but also in a team.

You should not be allergic to pets as there is a cat in the home. Experience in the assistant profession is an advantage, but the greatest weight is placed on personal suitability.

Working hours: Day, evening, weekend, and awake night.

Employment conditions: Hourly vacation substitute

Start date: By agreement for training and during vacation weeks 25-32

The position may be filled before the application period has expired.

Interviews are conducted on an ongoing basis, and we look forward to your application!

For us at Kompis Assistans, it is important to have good communication with our candidates and to quality assure the recruitment process, so we kindly ask you to submit your application digitally via the link and not by email.

This is what we offer you as an employee with us!

• Longer notice periods than what the collective agreement regulates
• Market-based salaries
• Competence and development opportunities
• Wellness benefits
• Accessible vacation homes in Sälen and Spain
• Branded clothing from our own webshop

We have chosen to conduct the recruitment process ourselves and kindly decline all forms of offers from advertising and staffing/recruitment companies.

We apply individual salary setting, vacation, and OB according to the collective agreement with Vårdföretagarna.
