Therefore, as an employee at Prima Omsorg, you can expect to gain valuable knowledge and continuous supervision regarding your tasks.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced personal assistant with a strong interest in working pedagogically. Our client is a 26-year-old man with autism and an intellectual disability. He needs assistants to support and help with daily chores, communication, and to engage in activities in the best possible way.

You need to be in good physical shape as he enjoys moving around and goes on several long walks each day. The work involves days filled with laughter and play, but also moments where your role is to prevent and manage frustration and challenging situations. Therefore, it is important to always be attentive to the client's well-being and adaptable in different environments. Assisting with interpreting, explaining, and mediating the surroundings is of great importance. This position also includes supporting him with all daily tasks.

Your Qualities and Skills

To thrive in this role, we look for the following qualities and interests:

• Enjoy being outdoors.
• Can be inventive and creative.
• Can maintain calm in all situations.
• Can write, understand, and speak fluent Swedish, as daily documentation is required.

We are looking for someone who is:

• Inventive and motivating.
• Positive, calm, and self-assured.
• Attentive and clear in your working methods.
• Professional and low-affective in your approach.
• Receptive to the client's needs.
• Cooperative, as double assistance is sometimes required.

Terms of Employment

This position is an hourly employment, but there is also an opportunity to work after the summer. Working hours vary, and shifts are scheduled during the day, afternoon, evening, and weekends.

Before starting work, you must provide a certificate from the Swedish Police Authority's Register of Persons with Convictions.
