About the Job

We are looking for you who want to work as a personal assistant to a young man with extensive disabilities due to severe cerebral palsy (CP) and epilepsy. He needs support in everyday life with everything from care, tube feeding, and transfers to creating meaningful and content-rich days. You are cheerful, responsible, have a big heart, and are driven by making a difference in someone else's daily life. At this workplace, you always work together with a colleague in double assistance, which provides a secure and tightly knit team.

You who are applying

• Can handle both calm moments and stressful situations (e.g., during epileptic seizures).
• Have good Swedish language skills in speech and writing.
• Are sensitive and attentive to non-verbal communication.
• Can manage physically demanding tasks. Aids are available, but it is still physical work.
• Are not allergic to cats and do not smoke during working hours.

Merits

• Experience in care and social services.
• You are a competent swimmer.
• You can step in with short notice in case of illness.

A driver's license is not a requirement, but if you live far from the workplace, it is a great advantage.
