to apply for the job
Are you reliable, attentive, and enjoy video games? We are currently seeking hourly substitutes – with the possibility of monthly employment – to support a 15-year-old boy with a muscle disease that affects his mobility.
He is a social and smart teenager who enjoys playing video games, hanging out with friends, and living as normal a teenage life as possible. Your task is to provide support in his daily life so that he can do just that.
Job Responsibilities
As a personal assistant, you will help him with:
Hygiene and personal care
Transfers and some exercises
Practical support in daily life
Assistance during gaming (e.g., pressing buttons)
Since his voice is weak, it is important that you understand Swedish very well and are attentive to nuances in communication.
We are looking for someone who
Is calm, reliable, and patient
Has a knack for reading others and adapting
Preferably has an interest in TV or computer games
Is a non-smoker
Takes into account that the boy is allergic to dogs
Has a driver's license (required)
Speaks and understands Swedish fluently
Previous experience in personal assistance is an asset, but the most important thing is that the personal chemistry is right and that you fit into the team around him.
About the Position
You will work as an hourly substitute, with the opportunity to step in as needed – for example, due to illness, leave, or extra shifts. You will receive a thorough introduction and work alongside experienced staff until you feel confident in the role.
Application
We recruit on an ongoing basis and only contact those who proceed to an interview. Interviews are held at the boy's home, where you will also meet the family.
Questions or application: Contact Emma at [email protected]
