Vacant job

We are Varberg Municipality, the employer that sees the possibilities in you. Here you can make a difference, both for others and for yourself. We are driven by the idea of simplifying people's everyday lives and realizing their dreams. We do this with the help of knowledge, innovative courage, and a forward-thinking spirit. Welcome to contribute to our vision – to become the creative center of the west coast.

Warm welcome to Väröbacka Home Care.

It’s about providing the elderly with a safe and meaningful everyday life, creating secure conditions for people with cognitive impairments, supporting individuals with disabilities, or being there for children, youth, and adults in vulnerable life situations. With us, you need to know a little about everything.

Here you make a real difference – every day.

With us, you meet each individual with respect and professionalism. We collaborate across professional boundaries – both within our own administration, with other parts of the municipality, and with external actors. To ensure quality and development, we actively work with follow-up, improvement work, and digitalization.

The Social Administration is responsible for providing support, care, and assistance to people at different stages of life. We work based on the individual's needs and offer services that are based on several laws, including the Social Services Act (SoL), the Act on Support and Service for Certain Disabled Persons (LSS), and the Health and Medical Services Act.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Working as a care assistant with us means being an important part of people's everyday lives. You get to use your care and commitment to make a difference every day. We are looking for you who want to contribute to creating safety, continuity, and good care for individuals who need support, whether it is at home, in a special accommodation, group home, or within social psychiatry.

As a care assistant, you provide support in daily living for individuals in need of care. This may involve assistance with personal care, meals, transfers, and creating a meaningful everyday life for the user. The work is based on individual implementation plans and aims to strengthen the individual's independence and participation.

You work closely with colleagues and other professionals, and it is included to document efforts according to applicable guidelines. The role requires good communication, flexibility, and a professional approach, always with the user's needs in focus.

The work is scheduled for both daytime, evenings, and weekends, depending on the needs of the operation. Resource shifts within other home care groups may occur.

QUALIFICATIONS

To thrive in the role, you need to be confident in yourself, have a respectful attitude, and want to contribute to a good working climate. You need to be meticulous, service-oriented, and have the ability to adapt to different people's needs.

The work requires good collaboration skills, but also that you can take responsibility and work independently. It is important that you are attentive, aware of changes, and can handle both routine situations and more unexpected events in everyday life. You need to have the ability to document in digital systems according to applicable routines.

We also see that you have:

• Good ability to express yourself in Swedish, both spoken and written
• Requirement for a B driver's license.
• Experience in home care, elderly care, and/or social psychiatry is an advantage.

We believe in a working method where quality and development go hand in hand and would like you to contribute to that. Welcome to apply for the position of care assistant and become part of Väröbacka Home Care, making a real difference every day.
