Vacant job

I am a mostly happy guy living with my family in Ludvika. We have both dogs and cats in the family that I love dearly. I go to school during the day and train a lot in my spare time. I suffered a brain injury at birth, which has resulted in multiple disabilities. This means I need active supervision and total care around the clock.

I need assistance with everything in my daily life. Transfers, mealtimes, training, personal care, medical nursing, and activities are part of everything I need and want to do. I communicate through facial expressions and various sounds. It is important that you are open to learning my way of communicating, as I am classified as blind and non-verbal.

I am looking for an assistant I can trust and who takes responsibility for ensuring my days run smoothly. I appreciate a light-hearted and positive personality and look forward to training you as my personal assistant! You will be with me wherever I am: at home, at school, at medical appointments, and during activities.

You will work both independently and together with a colleague.

Employment level: 80% on a fixed shift roster.

You who apply:

• Capable of handling physically demanding work.
• Non-smoker.
• No allergies, as there are dogs and cats in the home.
• Enjoy bathing and spending time outdoors.
• A Class B driver's license is an advantage but not a requirement.
• Desirable: 1-2 years of experience in personal assistance.
