Job Responsibilities

We are currently seeking support assistants for Hallegatan's BmSS and Åbogården's BmSS in central Hisingen!

We are looking for employees for two group homes with elderly psychiatry and comorbidity, located in the same building and with close collaboration between the units.

You will be employed at one of the operations and work based on each tenant's individual implementation plan. The job involves providing support, motivation, and care in daily life – for example, creating structure in everyday life, maintaining routines, cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, and assisting with personal hygiene. You will also perform medical interventions on the delegation of a nurse or rehabilitation staff and support tenants in meaningful activities and leisure.

The assignment includes participating in the establishment and follow-up of implementation plans to ensure the quality of the services. Together with colleagues, you will create a safe, stimulating, and home-like environment for the tenants. The work may involve some exposure to passive smoking and pets.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone with a degree from the Health and Care program, support assistant training, or the Child and Leisure program with a focus on social or educational work. The educational requirement is also met if you have a post-secondary specialization in the disability field that includes at least 200 YH points, 120 higher education credits, or a combination thereof that corresponds to at least four semesters of full-time studies. Alternatively, 60 higher education credits and at least two years of experience working with support and services for people with disabilities. The education should have relevant credits in behavioral science, pedagogy, psychology, social work, and (psychiatric) nursing or other education that the employer deems equivalent.

Very good knowledge of Swedish in speech and writing is a requirement; you need to have passed Swedish 1 or Swedish as a second language 1. Those who do not meet the qualification requirements in Swedish 1 or Swedish as a second language 1 may be offered to take a language test through the test user Educateit.

It is an advantage if you have experience working with AAC (Alternative and Augmentative Communication), LAB (low-arousal approach), and clear pedagogical methods. Other advantageous experiences include knowledge of acquired brain injuries, challenging behavior, and good computer skills.

You have the interest, willingness, and ability to help others, and you strive to present solutions. You have the ability to work together with others to perform tasks and achieve goals. By being interested and creating understanding for others, you contribute to a respectful work environment.
