Personal Assistant Wanted in Örebro!

We are now looking for a personal assistant for a woman in her 50s with a diagnosis of ALS, living in Örebro. The position offers a meaningful opportunity to work closely with an individual and contribute to increased quality of life, safety, and independence in her daily life.

As a personal assistant, you are responsible for providing support in daily tasks based on the user's individual needs. The duties include, among other things, personal care, assistance with transfers, intimate hygiene, handling of assistive devices (such as a cough machine), motor training, and support during various activities. The work takes place in her home and in other environments where she is present.

Working hours are scheduled during the day and evening, both on weekdays and every other weekend. The work is largely performed with double staffing. We view positively if you have the ability to work flexibly and can step in on short notice when needed, for example due to sick leave.

You will be part of a work group where cooperation and responsibility are central. It is therefore important that you have a good work ethic, are flexible, and contribute to a functioning team. Availability during the summer and holiday periods is desirable.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who are confident in your professional role, have a professional approach, and the ability to work independently. You are flexible and can adapt to changing conditions. Furthermore, you have good documentation skills and a genuine interest in working with people in care.

As a person, you are calm, patient, responsible, and have a positive attitude. You master the Swedish language well in both speech and writing, as clear communication is an important part of the work. Experience in personal assistance or similar work in health and social care is meritorious.

Since we value the safety and security of our clients, it is our routine to request an extract from the criminal record for all persons employed by the company. This means that upon employment, we will request a record extract from you before you can start working.

We will only contact candidates who are relevant for an interview and the position may be filled before the last application date, so do not wait to submit your application!
