About the workplace

The Assistance Unit consists of 13 dedicated social workers, one social administrator, two senior social workers, and one unit manager.

The unit is responsible for authority exercise according to SoL (elderly care) and LSS as well as the transport service law and national transport service. In addition to authority exercise, we actively work with collaboration and development in various areas, and your contribution as a social worker is very important. You will be offered professional development, internal method supervision, and external process supervision.

The Assistance Unit is located in central Nödinge, close to both the E45 and good public transport connections.

In this advertisement, we are looking for an employee for authority exercise in elderly care, primarily working with the target group aged 65+. Do you want to work in a workplace with an exciting target group focus and a strong emphasis on quality and development? Welcome with your application!

Job responsibilities

As a social worker, you will handle applications for assistance and requests for interventions according to the Social Services Act (SoL), primarily concerning interventions related to the target group aged 65+. As a social worker, you will work based on current legislation to inform, investigate, assess, make decisions, and follow up on interventions. In your role, you will meet individuals with mental/neuropsychiatric/physical and intellectual disabilities, their families, networks, and guardians/managers.
