Vacant job

Do you enjoy a job with highly varied tasks where clarity is key?

We are currently looking for summer replacements who can work throughout the entire period of June, July, and August.

I am a woman in my 50s, living with my husband and our cat. I have cerebral palsy (CP) along with another neurological condition, which means I need assistance with anything requiring motor skills, strength, or coordination. My speech is affected, so it varies how easily I am understood, but with time and patience, it usually resolves relatively easily.

As my assistant, you will assist me with all aspects of my life.

I need assistance with:

• Dressing and undressing
• Eating and drinking
• Mobility while standing (a lift is available in case of emergency)
• All common household chores
• Help in the stable to put on my gear and mount the horse with the help of a lift
• Fetching items I need within reach
• Accompanying me wherever I go, whether I am at work, at the stable, at home, or at other activities

To thrive as my assistant, the following should suit you well:

• You have no need for control and are completely comfortable being in the background until I need assistance, after which you return to the background.
• You understand privacy and confidentiality.
• You are fearless and grounded.
• You can accept constructive criticism.
• You do not have a need to "take care of people" in an overprotective manner.
• You speak and write fluent Swedish with a large vocabulary.
• You do not smoke.
• You do not use perfume or strongly scented products.

About the position

You will be employed on an hourly basis as a temporary substitute. The position is preferably to start as soon as possible, but you must be fully available during the summer period of June, July, and August. If everything works out well, you can stay on as a temporary substitute afterwards.

This is 24/7 assistance with a wakeful night. Shifts are scheduled 07:00–14:30, 14:30–22:00, and 22:00–07:00. Only female applicants.
