Your tasks

As a summer substitute with us, you will have a varied and social job. Regardless of where you work, it is about providing support and creating a meaningful everyday life for the elderly. You will start from the citizen's needs and help them maintain their abilities. Common tasks include:

• Assistance with personal care, such as dressing and undressing
• Assistance with personal hygiene, such as showering and toilet visits
• Service tasks, such as laundry, cleaning, and shopping
• Social activities, such as walks and coffee breaks

Who are you?

We are looking for someone who is positive, enjoys working with people, and can collaborate with colleagues. The job also requires that you can work independently, take responsibility, and be attentive.

It is beneficial if you have education in care, child and leisure programs, or similar, but it is not a requirement. Previous experience in care and support is an advantage.

You need to be able to speak, read, and write in Swedish as you will communicate with the elderly, their relatives, and colleagues, as well as write and read work notes.

Most of our positions require you to be at least 18 years old. For work in home care, you need to have a driver's license or be able to cycle. For work in the patrol, a driver's license is required, and for work in the home team, a manual transmission driver's license is required.

We offer you:

• Varied tasks with a contractual salary
• A meaningful, flexible, and fun job
• Thorough introduction to the job
• A secure summer job with fair conditions

Returning bonus – Have you worked a summer job in the social administration before? Then a bonus may be applicable at the end of the summer!

If you do a good job, you have the chance for continued work in the fall, perfect for you who are studying.
