Do you want to be part of my team on Ljusterö during weekends and holidays!

I am now looking for one or two personal assistants who can work during weekends and summer holidays when we are at the cottage on southern Ljusterö. During the summer, I will also need assistants at summer camp by Hjälmaren for a couple of weeks in August.

I am in my first year of adapted high school and require assistance around the clock due to a neurological condition that includes epilepsy with severe seizures during nighttime sleep (very rarely during the day). I enjoy music, dancing, clothes, and headgear, and have special interests such as vacuum cleaners and guitars.

I am looking for someone who is positive, secure, and solution-oriented, and who finds it exciting to work with people who think differently. It is important that you are attentive when I experience stress, as stress increases the risk of seizures. The introduction will focus heavily on communication and information about epilepsy and emergency care.

To minimize the risk of misunderstandings, it is important that you have good knowledge of Swedish.

Your Responsibilities:

• Be my support and security that enables school, outings, and camp, etc.
• To understand and support me in communication with others.
• To come up with activities that we find fun to do together.

Desirable Experiences:

• Relationships with people with different cognition.
• Alternative communication such as TAKK and Widget Go.
• Music in all forms.
• Epilepsy.

Working Hours:

There is an opportunity to work weekends and summer holidays both during the day and night. During the period of August 4 - 17, there is also an opportunity to work at camp by Hjälmaren.

Start Date:

By agreement.

We look forward to your application and hope you want to be part of our team!
