About the workplace

Our organization is growing, and we are now looking for more dedicated employees to join our team. BoDa Västkustvägen is beautifully located in Hasslarp, between Helsingborg and Ängelholm. With good bus connections and a bus stop just outside the residence, it is easy to get to work.

The operation follows the BoDa concept, which means that housing and daily activities are planned together. Here, the staff follows the individual and works both in daily activities and in the group home. The service is aimed at people with intellectual disabilities who need support and service, where it is important that we are always available.

What we offer

We offer you a varied, responsible, and stimulating job with opportunities for personal development. The workplace is smoke-free and health-conscious. As an employee, you will receive a wellness allowance of 3000 SEK per year. We apply a desired employment rate, which means that you decide how many percent you want to work.

Job responsibilities

As a support assistant, you work to create quality care and are expected to work with all senses to contribute to a rich, exciting, active, and independent life for people with disabilities. You will be the extended arm of our residents in their daily lives, which may involve providing support in various activities, with hygiene, assisting during meals, and ensuring that medication is taken as needed.

We work with great respect for the user's integrity and tailor the support according to the user. You follow the implementation plans for each resident to ensure they have the best possible life. The work is planned, documented, and closely monitored, so it is important that you feel secure in documentation.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone who has a high school diploma from the healthcare and nursing program or has studied the child and leisure program with a focus on social and pedagogical work.
