Vacant job

Do you have experience working with clients in need of support? We are now looking for summer substitutes who want to take the next step in their career and make a difference in young people's lives.

About the organization

Patia Special Solutions operates based on the concept of one-to-one treatment. This means that the placed youth lives in their own accommodation with staff available around the clock. The placed individual thus has their own staff group, and there are no other individuals placed in the same premises. The facilities are well adapted for the purpose. The premises are spacious and consist of apartments of about 80 square meters with a private room for the placed individual, staff office, and on-call room for staff, communal areas for the placed individual and staff, as well as a kitchen and two bathrooms.

The organization primarily targets children and young people aged 12-21 who have difficulties managing their daily lives and exhibit acting out behavior, aggressive behavior, and/or other deviant behavior, and thus have difficulties functioning in a group. The goal of the organization is for the placed individual to be able to return to a less staff-intensive setting, such as a foster home, supported housing, or collective HVB, after completing their placement at Patia Special Solutions.

The organization is located in Flemingsberg.
