Additionally, you will drive and apply Nytida's framework for pedagogy and contribute to the design of personal pedagogy for the users. This is to support the users in utilizing their cognitive and social abilities, strengthen their self-esteem, and enable a health-promoting life by acting as a role model and motivating them towards wellness. Together with other employees, you work towards making the day meaningful and rich in content, performing care-related work, ensuring pleasant premises, and participating in activities with the users. You will also guide and support employees in social documentation and implementation plans, mentor new hires, and collaborate with the operations manager in development projects, such as in our activity group.

There are 6 women living in the residence. Rönnbergastigen is a group home located in Klockartorpet, also close to public transport. There are 4 residents, and currently, there is one vacant apartment. Some residents have a greater need for care, and it is an advantage if you are experienced in using a lift for transfers.
