We are now looking for a trained nursing assistant who wants to work with us at the Short-Term Unit Sörmarksgatan 207!

The Health and Elderly Administration in Borås City works towards the goal that both younger and older residents in need of care, support, and service, as well as health care and preventive health work, should have a good life every day.

Within the Health and Elderly Administration, we work for the benefit of the citizens. We focus on supporting the elderly to a meaningful existence throughout their lives! We actively work with the individual's needs at the center with a rehabilitative approach.

At Sörmarksgatan 207, we are a wonderful team consisting of nursing assistants, care aides, managers, and coordinators. With us, men and women from different backgrounds work, enriching our operations and broadening our competence. With joy at work, collegial support, and team spirit, we develop our operations together.

The Short-Term Unit Sörmarksgatan 207 has 44 places and receives individuals with somatic diseases, rehabilitation needs, cognitive impairments, and those with extensive care needs and/or palliative care. You and your colleagues in the team, consisting of nursing assistants, nurses, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists, work cross-professionally to achieve the individual's goals during their short-term stay.

A short-term stay is a needs-assessed support according to the Social Services Act and the Act on Support and Service for Certain Disabled Persons. Decisions regarding short-term stays are always time-limited and are continuously followed up during the stay.

We are looking for you who are a trained nursing assistant with good experience in care and support. We see that you want to continue developing in your professional role as we offer a varied and stimulating job.

You provide personal care and perform health and medical interventions by delegation. The work includes care and palliative care, quick medical assessments, and treatments. You handle medical equipment and advanced care. You carry out daily documentation according to the Social Services Act and the Health and Medical Services Act, as well as design implementation plans. Documentation is done in the operational system VIVA. 

Working hours are scheduled on weekdays, evenings, and weekends, including holidays.

Within the short-term operations, both needs and conditions can change rapidly. Therefore, the work requires a flexible approach. The work is performed both independently and together with other colleagues.

In addition to meaningful work tasks, good collegial community, and good working conditions, as an employee of Borås City, you are offered employee benefits in the form of wellness grants, free access to the municipality's swimming pools, benefit bicycles, and a variety of activities organized by the staff association MerKraft.
