About the Position
Personal assistance is a service under LSS (Law on Support and Services for People with Certain Disabilities). As a personal assistant, you will primarily help the client with everything that arises in daily life and with basic needs. Your work involves safeguarding the client's self-determination and integrity, and contributes to making everyday life run smoothly. Each assistance arrangement is uniquely tailored to the client's life, so work tasks may vary depending on the workplace.
We are looking for one or more people who want to work part-time or as needed as a personal assistant for a 24-year-old wheelchair-using woman on Södermalm in central Stockholm.

We would like you to help enable other activities such as events, cinema, concerts, and theater, as well as handle some daily errands.
Flexibility is a key word for how this work is carried out. Work shifts can be booked with advance notice and on a regular basis, but it can also involve stepping in with relatively short notice when possible.
