I am an 18-year-old who needs extra support in daily life. I am active and enjoy staying busy.
I live in my own apartment in central Olofström, which has good bus connections.
During school terms, I attend school and after-school programs where I communicate through pictures.
In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors. My "buggy" has a third wheel so I can get around most places. I can stand on my feet and train regularly in my standing frame (at least 60 minutes/day). I love music very much. Others might get tired of hearing the same songs over and over again, but music I recognize makes me happy and calm. Routines are important to me, and my assistants work systematically throughout the day to create clarity.
Since I don't have spoken language, frustration can sometimes arise. It's important that you recognize early signs and can redirect me in time. It's important that I know what will happen and feel prepared. When people don't understand me, I can get "lightning angry" and maybe throw something on the floor or wave my arms. Then it's important that you as an assistant stay calm and don't get scared. Just as quickly as I became angry, I become happy again. I always have a trick up my sleeve; I enjoy humor and laughter.
Who are you applying for this job?
You who are applying should ideally enjoy being active while also being able to take things slow. You need to be stable and attentive. It's a merit if you have experience with autism and challenging behavior. Most importantly, you need to be grounded and have your heart in the right place. Here you have a chance to make a difference for a young man entering adult life.
