Job description

Come and create the story of your life with Avustajasi Validia Oy! We are now looking for personal assistants for the Lievestuore area in Laukaa.

How does meaningful and valuable work with working hours that suit you sound? Would you like to gain work experience in the care sector from a unique perspective, or are you looking for an activity for your retirement years in calm conditions, one client at a time? Join us! As a personal assistant, you get to be part of our clients' valuable stories.

At Validia, personal assistance clients are individuals within the scope of disability services. Personal assistance involves helping at home or outside the home with tasks that the person cannot perform themselves due to illness or disability. Assisting can include support for hobbies or studies, household chores, or enabling leisure activities. Sometimes the assistant's most important task is to be a conversational partner and companion: to be that unhurried person for another human being. The role of a personal assistant in the client's everyday life is significant, as the aim is to support and enable living at home for as long as possible, and to provide the opportunity for an active and meaningful daily life while respecting the client's right to self-determination.

This job is for you if you seek variety and flexibility in your work; the work is performed according to the client's needs and wishes. You also have the opportunity to influence the timing of your shifts by agreeing with the client. You will work independently and commit to agreed practices. An open attitude and your own personality will take you far! Thanks to the flexibility, our work is suitable as extra income for both students and retirees. We do not require professional training or work experience in the field, but these are considered an advantage.

We offer you

• Salary according to the collective agreement: Private Social Services Sector TES, salary class G15A
• Flexible working hours
• The opportunity to get acquainted with disability work and the care sector
• Orientation based on your skills
• Support from a professional work community seasoned with humor
• The opportunity to employ yourself in other social and health care tasks through further studies

We hope for

• Genuine interest in assistance work
• A positive and cheerful attitude
• A desire to learn new things and develop in your work
• Sufficient Finnish language skills; other language skills are considered an advantage

We require vaccination protection according to Section 48 of the Communicable Diseases Act and a tuberculosis certificate according to Section 55. Additionally, we will check a criminal record extract in accordance with the Act on the Supervision of Social and Health Care.

New employees for personal assistance tasks are needed as our client base grows. We will contact applicants when the needs and wishes of the applicant and the client align.
