to apply for the job
Prima Omsorg i Norden AB is a personal assistance provider striving to maintain the highest possible quality in the delivery of assistance. Our goal is always to achieve the highest possible quality of life for the individuals who have chosen us as their provider. The path to this goal is education and supervision. We are convinced of this. Therefore, as an employee at Prima Omsorg, you can expect to gain valuable knowledge and continuous supervision regarding your tasks.
Who We Are Looking For
We are looking for you who want to work with a social, active, and charming young adult with autism and epilepsy. The individual is cheerful, enjoys walks, music, and other social activities. For this person, it is important that you are engaged, open, and act as a driving force in daily life.
Tasks and Environment
The work is varied – some days are filled with play and laughter, while others involve preventing and managing frustration or challenging behaviors. During outings and other major activities, you will always work in pairs, as the individual requires double assistance. You will receive an individual introduction where you will learn about the individual's needs, routines, and working methods.
Your tasks include support in all aspects of daily life, such as meals, personal hygiene, communication, and activities. Therefore, you need to be active and proactive, while also being empathetic, structured, and able to create a sense of security. Humor, warmth, and the ability to adapt to mood and different environments are important qualities. The work should always contribute to strengthening the individual's independence and self-determination.
Your Qualifications
We would like you to:
- Enjoy working pedagogically
- Like being active and coming up with activities during shifts
- Have the ability to remain calm in challenging situations
- Have experience with autism
- Have experience with epilepsy
Experience with personal assistance, low-affective approach, and/or AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) is meritorious but not a requirement. The position involves working on a rolling schedule with day, evening, night, and weekend shifts. The position is full-time starting in June, but we would prefer if you could start working already in the spring. We are looking for both those who wish to work more continuously. As a personal assistant at Prima Omsorg, mandatory education and supervision apply.
Start is immediate – we warmly welcome your application!
