Activity Coach for Young People with Dementia

As an activity coach, you play a key role in our residence for younger individuals with dementia. The residents are under 65 years old. You will independently drive your work by offering enjoyable activities with your positive approach.

Create a Meaningful Everyday Life

You are responsible for planning and arranging activities based on our residents' interests and wishes, with activities currently taking place on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The tasks are very varied and give you the opportunity to use all your creativity to spread joy and create a meaningful everyday life for those living here. Activities are planned based on seasonal themes, holidays, and current events in society.

Since you will also be taking the residents out, you must have a driver's license for a manual car.

The rest of the time, you will work as a nursing assistant in the residence, where your main task is to provide good person-centered care that gives our residents a safe and meaningful everyday life.

You are closest to our residents, and your competence and commitment are crucial for the quality of care. This also means that you adapt to different situations and the residents' wishes and needs.

We place great importance on a good, situation-adapted approach, where you strive to go the extra mile in every encounter. You will also perform certain medical care tasks based on delegation from a nurse.

Teamwork for Good Quality

We work in teams around the resident with nursing assistants, nurses, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists to provide health-promoting care of very high quality. This also means that you have secure support from colleagues, both care staff and other professional roles.

We are happy to meet you if you want to improve the lives of those who need support, care, and assistance and share our values of equality, compassion, and change.

Welcome with your application!

  • We are looking for a joy spreader who is enthusiastic and creative. You are a professional who inspires, engages, guides, and creates motivation among both staff and residents. If you also have a genuine interest in health, music & movement, and culture, you will fit well in the role with us.
  • You are a nursing assistant and have education/experience in health-promoting work.
  • It is important that you have worked in care with individuals with dementia, and if you have worked with younger individuals with dementia, it is a merit.
  • You need to have good knowledge of the Swedish language, both spoken and written, good computer skills, and a B driver's license for a manual transmission.
  • As a person, we hope you are creative, action-oriented, responsible, and flexible. You are responsible and mature enough to perform qualified and personal care work.

We are a non-profit organization within support, care, education, and research. Not distributing any profits allows us to invest all resources into fulfilling our mission as well as possible. Since 1905, activities within the Stiftelsen Stora Sköndal have developed, changed, and improved. Some activities remain, while others are entirely new. But one thing does not change: We still operate under the conviction of the equal value of all people.

Every day we want to improve the lives of all the people we meet in our activities. Today, we have about 750 employees, both monthly and hourly, who work together towards our vision - a society with a natural place for everyone. Our culture is permeated by our values - equality, compassion, and change.
