Stift Dormsjöskolan · Freie Mitarbeit

Dormsjö 214, Garpenberg, Schweden

Activity Description: Dormsjöskolan is a residential care home (HVB) for boys aged 7-23 years. We are located in Southern Dalarna, just north of Hedemora, and have our own free school. Here, children and young people live in five beautifully situated houses, near a nice bathing lake and exciting forests. There are opportunities for fun activities and quiet moments, as well as supportive adults. Target Group: Boys with neuropsychiatric disabilities as well as social and emotional difficulties. We have capacity for 28 boys and the authorization includes placements supported by SoL, LVU, and LSS. Description of Work Tasks: The foundation of our approach is to create predictability and routines in a structured environment by giving each day, week, and year a clear recurring structure. We assess the children's/young people's abilities and difficulties. The assessment and care plan form the basis for an implementation plan tailored to each child's/young person's needs. The work primarily involves treatment and motivation work for the child/young person. Personal care is also a common task. The goal is to help the children/young people toward an independent life with functioning schooling. Treatment work is individualized based on each child's/young person's needs and circumstances. Social skills training, anger management, low-intensity responses, serial conversations, social stories, and visual support are some of the methods we use. We are looking for someone who is creative and enjoys physical activity, is passionate about working with children and young people with special needs, and is skilled at building trusting and positive relationships. The work requires you to be confident, solution-focused, stress-resilient, and possess great patience. Education: A degree as a social treatment pedagogue or other education deemed equivalent is desired. If hired, a criminal record clearance is required. Recruitment is ongoing; mark your application as hourly temporary work.
