Job Description

Do you want to be part of creating life-changing transformations in a young person's life?

SiS Youth Home Johannisberg is a high-security institution beautifully located next to the Kalix River in the quiet residential area of Grytnäs. The institution is in a development and expansion phase where work is ongoing to increase staffing and security. Our target group in Kalix is boys aged 16 - 21 placed under the Law on Closed Youth Care and the Law on Care of Young People. All work is permeated by our guiding principles: Respect, Care, and Clarity. As a new employee, you will receive thorough orientation, basic training, and further education in areas such as security, unauthorized influence, conflict management, CPR, and more.

As a treatment secretary, you will coordinate and be responsible for the treatment of the young people in the department, establish treatment plans, manage contacts with authorities, and be responsible for documenting completed treatment interventions while also guiding the treatment staff in their daily work. The treatment secretary plays a vital role in ensuring that the young people receive qualitative, individualized interventions based on their conditions and needs, and works closely with other professionals at the institution, such as treatment assistants/pedagogues, teachers, nurses, and psychologists. The treatment secretary contributes to the development of the institution's routines according to the authority's guidelines regarding treatment and investigation.
