JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

For the summer, we are looking for those who want a meaningful and important summer job.

Working in care is a varied, fun, and physical job where you need to have an interest in people. As a staff member in care, you are an extended arm for the elderly and have the opportunity to help where it is truly needed. No day is the same! Your tasks are varied and tailored to the individual's needs. This may involve assisting with personal hygiene, meals, medication, and transfers. But also providing emotional support, being a listening presence, and creating joy in everyday life.

You can work in care homes, home care, respite care, or short-term care. Our operations run around the clock, every day of the week. Your working hours are determined by the needs of the operation. This means that you should be able to work day/evening and weekends or night and weekends.

QUALIFICATIONS

To work with us, you need to have a genuine interest in people and be engaged, responsible, and respectful towards others based on their circumstances. You should be able to communicate with colleagues and care recipients and be able to understand instructions in Swedish both orally and in writing. A driver's license is an advantage and a requirement in some operations. If you are interested in home care, you need to be able to cycle. We use digital tools in our daily work, which requires you to be comfortable with this.

We prefer that you have completed or are currently pursuing education in the health and care program, nursing program, or other relevant education. It is advantageous if you have work experience in care work and good references from previous employment. We place great emphasis on personal suitability. To work with us, you must be at least 18 years old. To be considered for employment, a valid extract from the police criminal record "Extract for work at HVB homes" must be presented.
