We are seeking safe, committed, and flexible assistants who want to support a wonderful 5-year-old girl in her daily life.
Would you like to get to know me, Vera, a happy and curious 5-year-old joy-spreader? Then we want to talk to you!
I have unspecified Cerebral Palsy, breathing difficulties, and treatment-resistant epilepsy.
I need help with all daily activities. Most of my nutrition comes through a feeding tube in my stomach. But I also enjoy tasting and eating small amounts by mouth. My greatest assistance needs revolve around the challenges I have with breathing and epilepsy.
I therefore need someone who keeps a vigilant eye on me around the clock!
I need assistance in all moments. I am an active girl who likes when things happen. Playing, reading books, being outdoors, spending time with family, and I love music. I communicate through eye contact and body language. It's easy to understand me; I'm good at expressing when something is good or less good. I also have an eye-controlled computer that we are still getting to know, and we hope this will also help facilitate my daily life in the future.
We are a family with mom, dad, a 7-year-old big sister, the dog Vilda, and two cats living in a house in Galven outside Alfta.
Initially, we will get to know each other and my parents. We will teach you to use my aids and existing routines. Afterward, you will work independently (of course, with my parents close at hand if needed).
There are lifting tasks, so physical fitness should be good.
About the position: Vera has double assistance, which means two assistants work during the day, and at night, one assistant works awake while the other is on sleeping duty. We are looking for someone who can work days, evenings, nights, and weekends. We seek someone who speaks good Swedish, does not smoke, and has a driver's license. It's also important that you can remain calm when things get complicated for me. Experience in healthcare and care is desirable but not a requirement. The main thing is your willingness to learn. The absolute most important thing is that we like each other. Then we'll take it as it comes.
We would like the person applying to see this job as long-term, as we value continuity. If you recognize yourself in this description, you might be the one we're looking for!
Interviews will be conducted on an ongoing basis with job start by agreement. We look forward to your application!
Additional information: God Assistans cares for its assistants, has collective agreements, and offers wellness benefits up to 4,000 SEK/year.
In accordance with God Assistans Policy, we request criminal record checks for all who work with children.
To verify your right to work in Sweden, you need to be able to present a Swedish passport/personal certificate, residence card (EU), or residence and work permit/LMA card (outside EU).
