We are now seeking a personal assistant for a woman in her 50s with ALS, living in Örebro. This position offers a meaningful opportunity to work closely with an individual and contribute to increased quality of life, security, and independence in her daily life. As a personal assistant, you are responsible for providing support in daily activities based on the user's individual needs. Your duties include personal care, assistance with mobility, intimate hygiene, management of assistive devices (such as a cough machine), motor training, and support with various activities. The work takes place in her home as well as in other environments where she spends time. Working hours are scheduled during day and evening, both weekdays and every other weekend. The work is largely performed with double staffing. We view it positively if you have the ability to work flexibly and can step in with short notice when needed, for example during sick leave. You will be part of a work team where collaboration and responsibility are central. It is therefore important that you have a strong work ethic, are flexible, and contribute to a functioning team. Availability during summer and holiday periods is desirable. Qualifications We are looking for someone who is confident in your professional role, has a professional approach, and the ability to work independently. You are flexible and can adapt to changing circumstances. You also have a good ability to document and a genuine interest in working with people in care. As a person, you are calm, patient, responsible, and have a positive demeanor. You speak and write Swedish well, as clear communication is an important part of the work. Experience with personal assistance or similar work within healthcare and care is a merit. Because we care about our customers' safety and security, we have a routine of obtaining extracts from the criminal record register for all persons employed by the company. This means that upon employment, we will request a register extract from you before you start working. We will only contact candidates who become relevant for interviews, and the position may be filled before the final application deadline, so do not delay in submitting your application! Vita Assistans has offices in Stockholm, Örebro, and Gothenburg but serves customers and employs staff in other locations throughout the country.
