The position is located within the Care and Social Services Administration, which is one of eight administrations in Linköping Municipality. The Care and Social Services Administration is responsible for the municipality's elderly care, health and medical care, authority exercise, ordering of services, and provides care and support on its own. We work with a focus on quality and professionalism to make each day as good as possible for the residents of Linköping who need us. Do you want to brighten everyday life and improve the quality of life for the residents of Linköping? With us, you can make a significant difference and help make Linköping a better place. Welcome to us!

Your Responsibilities

Our vision is clear: "Smart Care for the Future". Do you want to help shape the future of care and support? Then you might be the one we are looking for! To meet the aging population while maintaining good quality, we need to increase our workforce with the right skills.

In May 2026, Linköping Municipality will take over responsibility for home care, home health care, home rehabilitation, and assessed security housing in the southwest area, which includes Lambohov, Skäggetorp, Vikingstad, and Ulrika/Nykil.

Within home care, you provide support and care directly in people's homes. Here you have the opportunity to truly make a difference and become a crucial part of someone's life every day. You will encounter a wide variety of needs and challenges, making the work both varied and rewarding.

As a nursing assistant, you will play a central role in ensuring good care for our elderly during the night. The work is independent and varied, with no two nights being the same. The main focus is on care tasks such as medication management and supervision, but service-related tasks also occur. The position includes performing both planned interventions and responding to alarms. We start from Ålerydsvägen 7 and travel from there to those who need our help by car.

Your Workplace

The Care and Social Services Administration is growing, and we are looking for someone who wants to be part of developing our operations from the start. If you are driven by development, this is an opportunity for you.

Together with our 1,500 employees, we work to ensure that the residents of Linköping have a meaningful and dignified existence. Each year, we provide care and support for approximately 4,100 people and contribute to the municipality's development in the sector.

The night organization belongs to the department of open care forms and is aimed at individuals living in regular housing or security housing who need assistance during the night. We work in clusters but operate in all home care areas belonging to Linköping Municipality. With us, you will be part of a team of knowledgeable and experienced colleagues who, together with planners and the operations manager, work to provide the best possible care for our elderly.

Who We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone with work experience in care, support, and assistance. If you have previous experience with night work, we consider it a strong merit. We also see it as meritorious if you have a complete high school education, especially if you are a trained nursing assistant.

Work in elderly care involves a lot of contact with users and documentation, which means that it is a requirement that you can communicate orally and in writing in the Swedish language. We also see additional language skills as a merit.

You have good computer skills and the ability to use digital tools in your work. For the position, you need to have a B driver's license as we use a car in our work.

As a person, you are secure, stable, and self-aware. You are self-driven and take responsibility for your tasks and drive your work forward. You also work well with others and listen and communicate clearly, with the ability to adapt your communication style. It is also important that you have an empathetic ability and can understand others' perspectives and situations.
