Our operations focus on promoting health and well-being for individuals with dementia through day activities.

With us, you will find colleagues who are highly engaged in the mission and have many years of knowledge in the field of dementia.

• Good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written.

It is an advantage if you have:

• Experience working in day activities.

As a person, you need to be able to adapt quickly and see opportunities, and have a solution-focused approach. You have the ability to understand others' perspectives and can empathetically handle others' feelings with a calm and friendly demeanor. You should be able to convey information clearly and understandably, tailored to the individual's needs and circumstances.
