Vacant job

As a personal assistant, you will work with Axel, a cheerful 14-year-old boy. He was born with a brain injury, which means he needs help with most aspects of life. He uses a wheelchair and communicates using picture and text programs on his iPad. He is an active boy; if you have experience with exercise, it is a plus, as training is a necessity for Axel in his daily life. This is a long-term summer vacancy at 80% from May 10 to September 1. There is an opportunity for a permanent position if you and Axel get along well. Immediate start as a substitute is possible. A work shift includes among other things:

• Helping with most aspects of daily life, including personal hygiene, interacting and communicating with his surroundings, and playing.
• Being active is important. We have many active leisure activities, and Axel does a lot of physical exercise in his daily routine that needs to be carried out.
• Helping with daily chores, such as dressing and undressing.
• Swimming skills are mandatory (you must be comfortable swimming with Axel yourself, even in deep water). Knowing how to ice skate is a plus.
• Ensuring he gets his dinner by heating the food and assisting him at the dining table.
• Accompanying Axel to activities such as horse riding, swimming, framerunning, or just playing games. He loves playing music (instruments).

• Is over 18 years old.
• Speaks fluent Swedish and has good communication skills.
• Is flexible.
• Is a non-smoker.
• Is sensitive to needs and feelings.
• Has experience with intellectual disabilities (a great advantage, but not a requirement).
• Can swim.

Weekdays (at school with Axel): 07:00–16:00, evenings 16:00–21:00. Weekends: 09:00–21:00, every other weekend. What you get:

• We have a collective agreement and you are insured during working hours.
