Personal Assistant for an Engaged and Goal-Oriented Client — Prestige-Free and Reliable

We are looking for a warm, present, and prestige-free personal assistant for an adult client (40 years old) who has a new physical disability following a serious stroke in 2023, but retains full cognitive abilities. The client is actively engaged in rehabilitation and wishes to continue living a rich and meaningful life — she values self-determination, integrity, and participation highly. You will be a reliable presence helping with personal care, mobility, assistance with activities in the home, communication support in rehabilitation work, and coordination during visits from close family and friends, including her daughter who visits occasionally.

The client has some function in one hand, neck, and some function in all extremities, and needs support with many daily tasks — from dressing and undressing, positioning and transfers, to cooking, hygiene, supervision, and practical arrangements.

Beyond basic care duties, we are looking for someone who can be proactive and engage with the client's interests — culture, gardening/allotment, social issues, and activities in the local area. Communication and patience are crucial — the client needs a humble person who listens, can interpret needs, and at the same time take initiative when the situation requires it.

Experience in personal assistance or similar care work is advantageous, but most importantly, we value personal chemistry, empathy, and respect for self-determination. We would appreciate it if you have very good knowledge of Swedish to act as the client's linguistic interpreter and source of security.

If you share an interest in culture, gardening, or social issues, it is a plus, but not a requirement — what matters most is that you are present, responsible, patient, and capable of building trust.

Personal Qualities

• Empathetic, receptive, and calm in interactions with others.
• Responsible, punctual, and reliable.
• Flexible and proactive — willing to suggest activities and solutions that promote the client's recovery.
• Respect for self-determination and integrity.
• Good stress tolerance and patience in situations that may be emotionally demanding.

We place great emphasis on personal suitability and chemistry.

Please include references and, if possible, a current extract from the Swedish Crime Register (belastningsregister).

Working Hours and Employment Terms

Working Hours: Daytime, evenings, nights (sleeping shifts), and weekends. It works well to combine this with studies or other part-time jobs.

Employment: The position is a hourly-based employment that may lead to opportunities for fixed shifts on the schedule if everything works well and feels good for all parties. Full-time, part-time, and hourly positions are available. An extract from the Crime Register is required to be eligible for employment.

Training and introduction will be provided on-site. Monument Assistans is available for support and further education.

We would appreciate it if you submitted a video-recorded CV and cover letter, but this is not a requirement.
