Are you a flexible person who takes responsibility and is engaged in your work tasks? Are you social, playful, and love working with children? Then you might be the person we are looking for!
We are seeking assistants for Vilgot, who is 7 years old. He has dyskinetic CP and epilepsy.
Vilgot needs assistance with all activities; he is an active boy who enjoys playing, running in his walker, cycling, and participating in various family activities. He does not speak but uses an eye-controlled computer to communicate, browse YouTube, and play games. He is very expressive with his body language, making it easy to understand him once you get to know him.
We live in a house in Bergsjö, and the family consists of mom, dad, Vilgot's two brothers aged 13 and 15, the dog Svante, and two cats. Vilgot eats via a PEG but also tastes food with his mouth; the PEG is easy to learn.
Vilgot attends school where he has his own resource. Working hours are after school, evenings, and weekends. During the summer break, the shifts will be longer.
You will work on a schedule of approximately 50-75%. You will work a few days/evenings before you can take night shifts.
Lifting is required, so good physical condition is necessary. Some experience with children is desirable but not mandatory.
Interviews will be conducted on an ongoing basis.
We welcome your application!
We will require a copy of your passport (SV) or residence card (EU) or residence and work permit/LMA card (outside EU).
According to the law on background checks, anyone working with minors must present an extract from the police's criminal and suspicion register before employment. You will need to order the extract yourself (according to God Assistans policy, we require the extract for work at HVB homes as it provides more information than LSS) from the police website; you can find the form here: https://polisen.se/tjanster-tillstand/belastningsregistret/hvb-hem/
