We are looking for someone who wants an exciting and developing job.

As a nursing assistant with us, you will have a varied job that includes many points of contact. Together with your colleagues, you will have the opportunity to develop in your role and make a difference for people every day. For us, respect for people's self-determination and integrity is the foundation of our work.

Job responsibilities

As a nursing assistant with us, you contribute to good care and support for users in their homes. You will work with care tailored to the individual's needs. This may involve social and physical activities, both individually and in groups. In your work, you assist the user with health and medical interventions as well as rehabilitative measures prescribed by a nurse, physiotherapist, and occupational therapist.

As a specialized elderly nursing assistant, you should, from a holistic perspective, be a reflective practitioner with a conscious and professional approach based on knowledge in the field of elderly care. Your main tasks, in addition to daily care work, are to be a role model for your colleagues by spreading a person-centered and situation-adapted approach that supports the individual's participation and well-being. You will also teach current knowledge and working methods by conducting training for your colleagues. Collaboration with other professionals is also important in your work. As a specialized elderly nursing assistant, you will be part of the basic staff in the daily work. You will work according to the regular scheduling model of the organization.

Having a fixed care contact is part of your work, meaning you have special responsibility for one or more individuals. You will help create good relationships with colleagues, users, and relatives. Your work also includes ongoing documentation and responsibility for establishing, following up, and revising action plans.

Who are you

We are looking for someone who takes responsibility for their tasks with the user's best interests in mind and who is diligent in completing the work they have started. As a person, you have the ability to take initiative and create trusting relationships based on care and empathy. You work independently and have good teamwork skills as you actively participate in team efforts.
