Vacant job

Description

We are now looking for two dedicated employees for the Gunnern nursing home! With us, you will have the opportunity to work in a meaningful and developing environment where we together create conditions for our residents to achieve increased quality of life.

Workplace:

The Gunnern nursing home is located in Rud and has four departments spread over four floors. The residence is aimed at elderly people with dementia, based on decisions according to the Social Services Act, SoL. We actively work to create an environment that promotes both safety and good care.

Working hours:

Day and evening shifts during weekdays and every other weekend. We work with resource rotations, which means that some of your shifts may be scheduled in another department/residence within the municipality. We work together in a team and have staff on site around the clock, where we actively strive to create a supportive and learning work environment.

Job responsibilities

We work to create a safe and meaningful everyday life for people with dementia. Together with the care recipient, we design individual interventions that strengthen independence and participation. The work involves various tasks, such as personal care, cleaning, laundry, meal preparation, and motivating social interaction and activities. You will actively work with contact person assignments, implementation plans, and social documentation. We work with quality registers BPSD and Senior Alert and document what we do in the operational system Treserva.

The work also involves collaboration with other professionals such as nurses, rehabilitation staff, and cognition teams to provide comprehensive support to the care recipients. This means that you will perform delegated tasks such as medication management in your role.

Based on the assignment, you have a genuine interest in people, a strong sense of good care and the individual's integrity, as well as a good attitude. You see opportunities rather than obstacles, and we welcome your new thoughts and ideas for our operations!

Qualifications

We are looking for someone who is a trained nursing assistant or has equivalent education, and it is an advantage if you have experience working with elderly people and those with dementia diagnoses. Language is used as a working tool in contact with care recipients as well as in documentation and record-keeping. A prerequisite for the job is therefore that you have a good command of the Swedish language, both spoken and written, and have good computer skills. It is also advantageous if you have experience with Treserva and BPSD, which we work with.

We work in teams and are looking for a colleague with good collaboration skills who can solve various situations constructively. We want you to be self-driven and take responsibility for your tasks while being responsive to others' needs and able to give and receive feedback. Your personal maturity helps you read different situations, and your flexibility makes you open to changes, contributing to continuous improvements in the work.
