Your Role

As a treatment assistant, you work together with another treatment assistant at night based on a rotating schedule. At HVB Almen, you and your colleagues are awake during the night. Together, you are responsible for creating a safe and caring environment for the placed youth. This means you are responsible for following the individual implementation plans and carrying out the decided activities. The work also involves documenting what happens during the night related to the youth and creating pleasant and inviting premises through practical tasks such as cleaning, preparing the rooms, and more.

You are also responsible for creating conditions for the youth to safely follow evening and night routines when it is time to sleep and being available to offer conversation support when needed. You keep yourself informed about the occupancy of the residence and available places and report back to the colleague who takes over after each completed shift. You have the support of a supervisor available by phone at night.

Your Experience and Qualifications

We are looking for someone who has:

• completed vocational college education of 400 YH points (equivalent to two years of study) with a focus on social pedagogy/treatment pedagogy or another relevant focus for the position. Or completed academic education with a focus on social work, behavioral science, or a similar focus.
• current experience working in similar operations with 24/7 care
• good knowledge of Swedish in both spoken and written form

It is an advantage if you have:

• current experience working with youth
• experience documenting according to applicable regulations and guidelines.

To succeed in your role with us, it is crucial that you have excellent collaboration skills. You relate to others in a responsive manner and enjoy collaborating with other professionals, always keeping the client in focus. You have a strong empathetic ability, and it comes naturally to you to build trust and good relationships with people, especially youth. Since the work also involves meeting young people in difficult life situations, it is important that you can see opportunities, convey hope, and meet the youth in a respectful manner. You are stable and professional in your approach and have the ability to maintain a realistic perspective on situations that may arise.

We place great importance on your personal qualities, motivation, and commitment to the position.
