Vacant job

I am a fabulous 17-year-old girl living with my family in Gothenburg. I need support in my team, and I hope you are the one I am looking for!

Some of the things I enjoy include swimming, so you must be a competent swimmer and comfortable with chlorine. I also love being outdoors, going to the cinema, listening to music, dancing, and walking my dog – so I would love for you to share my passion for dogs! I have younger brothers whom I adore and enjoy spending time with, so you should be comfortable around young children.

As my personal assistant, you will help me with daily activities, primarily focusing on things I find fun! Since I enjoy being active and need assistance with various tasks, good physical fitness is important as some lifting may be required. You will accompany me in my daily life, with your workplace being both at my home and out at various activities.

I have epilepsy and use an eye-controlled computer as a communication aid; experience in both areas is preferred. I also have a venous port through which I receive nutrition (TPN), and you will receive training in this. It is important that you are not uncomfortable with blood.

Requirements for the position:

• Women only
• Experience with epilepsy
• Experience with personal assistance in homes with children
• Fluent in Swedish, both spoken and written, as communication is key
• Experience with stomas (abdominal bags)

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience with TPN and venous ports (intravenous nutrition)
• Experience with gastrostomy buttons and jejunostomy buttons
• Understanding of the LSS (Law on Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments) framework
• Experience handling emergency situations
• Valid driver's license (manual transmission)

Scope: I am looking for someone willing to work days and evenings. The position ranges from at least 50% to 80%. My assistance requires variable working hours: early mornings, days, evenings, awake nights, and weekends, so you must be able to work flexibly and variably as needed.

About the recruitment process: We are in continuous contact with interesting candidates, and the position may be filled before the application deadline. As part of our recruitment process, we always conduct a background check via Fortcheck, which is sent to you as a candidate via email and SMS. The background check is conducted entirely on your terms – you perform the check yourself and receive the results. You then choose whether to forward the information to us or cancel.

If offered this position, you will also need to provide an extract from the Swedish Police Authority's criminal record register, as the client is a minor. You can apply for this yourself here: Swedish Police Authority (polisen.se). It is important to select the register for "Work with children with disabilities".
