Treatment Pedagogue, Day-Night Shifts, Hourly Substitute

About the workplace

Our facility is located in a scenic area in northwest Scania. We welcome girls aged 15-21 who are placed under the Social Services Act (SoL) and the Care of Young Persons (Special Provisions) Act (LVU). At Åsbo, we offer individual care for girls who need a smaller context and more comprehensive support. In collaboration with social services, we can tailor the arrangement around the specific youth. Our treatment work is based on evidence-based methods where Motivational Interviewing (MI) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are central components.

Your role

As a treatment assistant, you will work individually with the youth to provide support and care in daily life. The goal is to establish a safe relationship where the youth wants and dares to accept the support offered. You will be part of a team that together plans the work around the youth, and our vision is that despite working alone, you will not feel lonely.

Work tasks include practical chores such as support with ADL, cooking, cleaning, medication management, community contacts, and transport. An important aspect is motivating the youth to develop their unique strengths/qualities and build competence. You also play a role in promoting an active and meaningful leisure time, which requires energy and the ability to inspire. The work involves documentation.

Qualifications

To be qualified for the position with us, at least two years of post-secondary education in areas such as social work, social pedagogy, or behavioral science is required. Experience with the target group is meritorious, as is knowledge of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and knowledge of neuropsychiatric disabilities (NPF).

We expect you to be warm and empathetic, a team player with a positive view of people's ability to change. Furthermore, you should be patient, confident in yourself, and able to handle conflicts constructively and remain calm in stressful situations.

Computer proficiency and experience with documentation are important, meaning you should have good verbal and written communication skills.
