Do you want to work as a personal assistant and contribute to everyone's equal right to a good life?

In this role, you will make a difference in people's daily lives and, together with us, work towards Humana's vision – Everyone has the right to a good life.

About the position

Personal assistance is a support measure under the LSS Act (Act concerning Support and Service for Certain Functionally Impaired People). As a personal assistant, your main task will be to help the customer with everyday issues and basic needs. Your work involves protecting the customer's self-determination and integrity, contributing to a smooth daily routine. Each assistance assignment is uniquely adapted to the customer's life, so tasks may vary depending on the workplace.

The customer's individual needs dictate the workday. Tasks may include assistance with mobility, personal care, training, communication, as well as household chores and activities both inside and outside the home.

Who are you?

The role of a personal assistant places high demands on the ability to build good relationships. Therefore, we are looking for someone who is empathetic, engaged, and responsible. It is also important that you can take initiative and see what needs to be done. To thrive as a personal assistant, it is crucial that there is good personal chemistry between you and the customer.

We are currently looking for you who fits the following criteria:

• Want to work for a young man in Vansbro who uses a wheelchair and has unilateral muscle weakness.
• Hold a B-driver's license and have access to a car (required for commuting to the workplace).
• Have good knowledge of Swedish.

The following qualifications are meritorious:

• Experience in similar work.
• Experience working with individuals with epilepsy or tube feeding.
• Experience using mobility aids, e.g., floor lifts.
• Share the customer's interests, which include film, sports, and music.

Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability.

Working hours, employment percentage, and salary

The current form of employment is "for as long as the assistance assignment lasts" with an employment percentage of 70–90%. Working hours vary and are scheduled during the day, evening, and night, with active hours around the clock. All shift types will be available to work according to the schedule.

Fixed hourly wage as agreed, and other benefits are paid according to the collective agreement.

The start date for the position is August 1st, but we would prefer if you could start the introduction period before then.

What we offer

At Humana, it is important that both you as an assistant and the customer feel secure in the collaboration. Therefore, as a new assistant, you will receive an introduction tailored to both the professional role and the specific customer you will be working with. You will also have access to relevant training and opportunities to develop in your role – ensuring you have good conditions to thrive and feel secure in your work.
