ABOUT THE JOB
We are looking for you who want to work as a personal assistant for a young man with extensive disabilities due to severe cerebral palsy 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 close-knit team.
YOU WHO APPLY
- Can handle both calm moments and stressful situations (e.g., during epileptic seizures).
- Have good Swedish skills in speech and writing.
- Are sensitive and attentive to non-verbal communication.
- Can handle physically demanding tasks. Assistive devices are available, but it is still physical work.

MERITORIOUS QUALIFICATIONS
- 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.
