Vacant job

For one of our clients in central Hörby, we are now looking for personal assistants who can work on an as-needed basis.

Our client is a positive woman who, due to a brain injury, needs 24-hour assistance with sleeping on-call. She needs help with most aspects of her daily life, such as dressing and undressing, personal hygiene, communication assistance, cooking, housekeeping, participating in activities, walks, transfers, etc. The client uses a wheelchair and needs assistance with all transfers. All transfers are done using a lift. The client has a small dog, so you must not be allergic to dogs.

The ideal candidate for this position should be responsible, positive, have a genuine interest in helping other people, and be proficient in English. As a personal assistant, you must be flexible, as the job means helping another person live their life in their own way.

Your workplace is wherever the client is, which means that during visits to family and friends, walks, shopping, and other activities, the location becomes your temporary workplace.

The schedule is based on 24-hour shifts with sleeping on-call. You start at 09:00 and finish at 09:00 the following day. As an on-call substitute, you will step in when regular staff is absent.

Recruitment is ongoing.
