Information about the Job Title

As of July 1, 2023, healthcare assistant is a protected job title (https://legitimation.socialstyrelsen.se/underskoterska-blir-en-skyddad-yrkestitel/). This means that you need a certificate from the National Board of Health and Welfare to use the title healthcare assistant in care and nursing.

You can apply for the certificate from July 1, 2023. If you do not have a certificate, you can continue to work in care and nursing, but with a different title than healthcare assistant. For those offered a job with us in Region Dalarna after July 1, this means that the title in your employment contract will be Care Assistant until you can present your certificate.

You can retain the title even if you change workplaces/employers after July 1. After that, you need to have a certificate of protected job title to use the title healthcare assistant.
