Home Care Service in Visby is Hiring New Colleagues

In Region Gotland, you can develop and grow, both as an individual and together with others. When you work with us, you contribute to making Gotland an even better place for people in all walks of life. We make each other better.

Home Care Service

Working in home care is about meeting people – around the kitchen table, in the small moments of everyday life, and in conversations that mean more than you might first think.

It's about creating security and helping someone to stay at home, and about making a difference little by little, every day.

We are now looking for 12 new colleagues for the home care service in Visby. Perhaps you are the one who wants a job where care, responsibility, and relationships are the most important. With us, you will meet people with different life stories and needs, and no day is like the other.

As an employee in home care, you will work from a structured workday, but since you work with people, things can change – therefore, you need to enjoy a flexible job. You will visit clients independently, but you will always belong to a team where you support each other and share responsibility. Your workday will take you around Visby – on foot, by bike, or by car.

With us, you will have a meaningful job where you contribute to security and quality of life, together with engaged colleagues, in a job that truly matters.

• Provide support, help, and motivation based on each client's individual needs and wishes.
• Perform personal care.
• Carry out medical interventions on delegation.
• Assist with cooking, escorting, shopping, cleaning, and laundry.
• Work according to clear implementation plans with the individual at the center.

• Establishing and following up on implementation plans.
• Documenting interventions in our digital systems.
• Maintaining contact with relatives.
• Collaborating with home healthcare, rehabilitation, case managers, and other home care groups.
• Using our digital planning tool as support in everyday life.

The work is scheduled and includes day, evening, and every other weekend shifts.
