Personal Assistant Sought for 9-Year-Old Girl in Varberg

kooperativet Hand i Hand ekonomisk förening · Vollzeit

Stationsgatan 30, Halmstad, Schweden

The position is full-time during daytime and evening hours on weekdays and weekends. Work shifts vary between 10-12 hours on a rotating two-week schedule, meaning you work the same number of days as you have off. This role is for someone skilled at reading how a person is doing. The work may require you to go from 0-100 in seconds, as breathing and mucus-related issues can occur acutely. Responsibilities include assisting with suctioning, inhalations, cough machine, BiPap, tube feeding, maintaining proper ergonomics, and transfers to and from various assistive devices. I am cheerful, positive, and love life. I see the joy in everything and am not afraid to challenge myself. My muscle disease, SMA Type 1, means I need help doing what my friends do. This can range from opening the cap on a glue stick to pushing my walker so I can go rollerblading with my roller skates. Another activity I enjoy is swimming and exercising in the pool, so it's good if you can change clothes and help me in the same changing room. You must also be able to speak and understand Swedish in speech and writing since I don't speak any other languages. You should be attentive to what I need and also be able to take your own initiative. Your workplace is where I am, and we usually operate from home. A driver's license is an advantage since we live a bit outside the city. SMA (spinal muscular atrophy) Type 1 is a muscle disease that causes general muscle weakness throughout the body, meaning all muscles are affected, from arms and legs to breathing and swallowing muscles. The disease has no cognitive or intellectual impact. Since she is a minor, a certificate from the police's criminal record register is required for work within LSS personal assistance, and it is an advantage if you have obtained this before a potential interview. https://polisen.se/tjanster-tillstand/belastningsregistret/barn-med-funktionsnedsattning/ For questions, contact Assistanskoordinator Matilda - [email protected]
