Job Description
I am a kind and caring woman in her 50s who is in a wheelchair. The wheelchair makes some everyday tasks difficult to perform without assistance - so this is where you come in. My days alternate between good and not-so-good days, and this helps determine my daily needs and activity level. I value good conversations, shopping, café visits, needlework and a good cinema or concert experience 🧶☕🎵 However, I also need to be able to withdraw and rest. You, as my assistant, must be able to assist me with suggestions for activities and tasks, as well as assist me in carrying them out - as this will help me towards a more fulfilling life.

## About the employer:
BPA is an abbreviation for user-controlled personal assistance. It is essentially an alternative way of organizing practical assistance for people with disabilities. BPA differs from more traditional services in that it is the person with assistance needs who decides what the assistance should be. BPA is a liberation and equality tool that helps give people with assistance needs the freedom to live an independent and active life - on an equal footing with others in society. Prima Assistanse has specialized in BPA, and is today a significant supplier throughout Norway. We work every day to help people with disabilities get the freedom and assistance they need to live an independent life. We are committed to delivering a good concept, quality at all levels, having professional employees and good routines, so that together we contribute to a successful everyday life.
