Flexible Substitute Workers Needed

We are looking for confident, calm, and experienced substitute workers who can step in as needed to support a man with a psychiatric diagnosis and reduced physical ability. The position involves working as a substitute and being able to quickly fill in during the absence of regular staff — both for urgent vacancies at short notice and with longer lead times, such as summer and vacation solutions.

The client needs to be surrounded by calm and security, therefore the role requires a gentle and attentive approach. You will function as a support to maintain functions as much as possible, while respecting the client's wishes and boundaries.

The work consists of both practical support at home and personal care. Typical tasks include household chores, cooking, assistance with dressing and undressing, transfers with a lift, and help with other care moments. In certain situations, you will need to handle various types of aids, so it is advantageous if you have experience with transfer aids. You are expected to work independently, make confident decisions together with the client in everyday situations, and take responsibility for performing tasks according to their individual needs and routines.

The role requires good communication skills — being able to listen actively, interpret non-verbal signals, and adjust your support accordingly when the client has a neuropsychiatric diagnosis.

Since the position is as a substitute, you need to be flexible in your availability and able to accept both day, evening, and weekend shifts depending on needs. We offer a meaningful job where you make a significant difference in a person's daily life by enabling security, self-determination, and activity. If you thrive in a role where empathy combines with practical ability and have experience from similar assignments — welcome to apply. Note: Please complement your application with information about your availability, previous experiences with MS or similar diagnoses, and handling of CPAP and other aids.

Experience and Qualifications

• Experience as a personal assistant or equivalent in care, references will be requested.
• Experience working with individuals with neuropsychiatric diagnoses and/or reduced physical ability.
• Familiarity with and experience handling aids (e.g., wheelchair and various types of lifts) or willingness to learn quickly.
• Good Swedish in speech and writing as it is a mandatory task to maintain social documentation.
• A criminal record extract will be requested.

Personal Qualities

• Calm and stable — can create security in everyday and unexpected situations.
• Independent and responsible — takes initiative and follows routines without constant supervision.
• Attentive and empathetic — ability to read the room and provide support when needed.
• Respect for integrity and self-determination.
• Flexibility and good problem-solving skills.
• Good technical skills as several tasks are performed digitally.
• Good physical condition and strength as some tasks are physically demanding.
