Summer Substitute at Strängnäs Municipality

Are you curious and flexible? Do you enjoy meeting people and want a dynamic and varied job where no workday is the same? Then the position as a summer substitute with us might be for you!

Strängnäs Municipality's staffing unit is looking for substitutes for our special accommodations (nursing homes), home care, and night patrol for the summer. Working as a substitute suits you who are attentive, driven, and enjoy meeting people. You are calm, and your demeanor and positive attitude make it easy for you to create good relationships with both clients, relatives, and colleagues. You are flexible and appreciate a dynamic and varied job where no workday is the same.

Our clients, whether they live in special accommodations or in their own homes, need assistance in their daily lives, which may include personal care and hygiene, cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping, or going outside - all based on the clients' wishes.

If you work during the summer period, you will be scheduled for a longer period at the same workplace.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

If you work at one of our beautiful special accommodations, you will assist our clients on-site with what they need support with on a daily basis. A large part of the work is performed individually with the client, but you have colleagues on-site and together you distribute what needs to be done during the shift.

In home care, you work with our clients in their own homes and support them with the tasks they have been approved for. During your shift, you walk, bike, or drive between clients' homes. You usually make visits to the homes alone, but you are part of a work team.

Documentation is part of the job, and your working hours vary and can be day, evening, and weekend. We are also looking for night staff for some of our units.

To be eligible for employment, you need to be able to get to and from work even in the evenings and weekends without always relying on public transport. This is especially important if you are applying for a job at one of our accommodations outside central Strängnäs, such as Åkers Styckebruk and Mariefred.

Working as a substitute with us gives you unique experiences from different workplaces, and you will have opportunities to make valuable contacts for the future. It is thanks to our substitutes that our operations can remain open year-round, weekdays and weekends, day and night.

Your work includes performing delegated tasks, and after a certain period of employment, it is also a requirement to take delegation so that we can continue to book you for shifts.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who has/is:

• At least 18 years old (this is a requirement to work as a substitute with us).
• Good ability to express yourself in spoken and written Swedish.
• Familiar with using IT as a support in daily life since some documentation and scheduling is done in our systems.

To work in home care, it is also important that you can bike.

It is an advantage if you have:

• Education in nursing.
• Previous experience working in healthcare.
• A driver's license and driving experience are advantageous if you want to work in home care.
• The ability to work the entire summer period, June-August.

If you work in home care, you need to be prepared for pets to be present in our clients' homes.

Your personal qualities are important to us! We want you to share the municipality's values - development, respect, openness, and clarity. A positive attitude towards work and a strong interest in working with people is the foundation for you to thrive with us. You are open, attentive, and have an easy time collaborating with others. With us, no day is the same, and you enjoy variation and can easily adapt if unforeseen events occur at work.

Before you start with us, you will first take part in digital training to learn more about the operations and job responsibilities. Once you have completed this, you will be assigned a workplace where you will also be trained and learn the practical work there.

We are now looking for staff who can work all or part of the summer period from June to August. There may be an opportunity to start working hours already during the spring and possibly also an opportunity for extension after the summer. We are reviewing all applications on an ongoing basis, so you are welcome to submit your application today!

We will contact you via the email you provide when applying for the position, so please ensure you check your email regularly.
