Do you want to make a real difference?
We are looking for personal assistants for a young woman with ALS in Jönköping.
Are you a calm, secure, and empathetic person with a good heart? Do you want a job where you make a real difference for someone else every day? Then you might be the person we are looking for.
About the assignment
Our client is a young woman living with ALS. She resides in a villa in Jönköping with her husband and leads a life centered around closeness, dignity, and making the most of everyday life.
She has previously lived an active life filled with climbing, travel, and adventures, and although her body now imposes limitations, her zest for life and strong will remain. She values relationships and the little joys in everyday life and appreciates being able to continue living her way.
As a personal assistant, you will be her support in daily life. You will assist with personal care, medication, and practical tasks at home. She manages her assistance herself, which means you need to be adaptable, empathetic, and secure. You will be her extended arms and legs – but also a present and respectful fellow human being.
We are looking for someone who
is a calm and stable person with a warm and reassuring presence. You have a good sense of humor and enjoy creating a positive atmosphere around you. With your attentiveness and ability to read situations, you know when it’s time to step forward – and when it’s more important to be still and present. You are flexible, respectful, and secure in yourself, and have no problem adapting to the needs and pace of others.
As our client is a young woman, we prefer female applicants to create the greatest sense of security and comfort in daily life.
It is also important that you are not allergic to pets, as there is a dog in the home.
Experience in caregiving or knowledge of PEG, ventilators, and cough machines is advantageous – but not a requirement. We place the greatest emphasis on your personal qualities and how you and our client work together.
What we offer
We offer various working hours. With us, you will have a meaningful job where you make a real difference every day. We believe in long-term commitment, security, and well-being for both our assistants and our clients.
You will receive a secure employment with an introduction and shadowing alongside an experienced colleague. We are looking for someone who is willing to work awake night shifts, where the position can be part-time with varying hours or a substitute position as needed. Start date is to be agreed upon.
To ensure you feel secure and can grow in your role, we also offer recurring professional development and training each year.
