Home Care Service in Södra Visby is looking for new colleagues

In Region Gotland, you can develop and grow, both as an individual and together with others. When you work with us, you contribute to making Gotland an even better place for people in all walks of life. We make each other better.

Home Care Service

Working in home care service means meeting people – around the kitchen table, in the small moments of everyday life, and in conversations that mean more than one might first think.

It’s about creating security and helping someone to stay at home, and about making a difference little by little, every day.

We are now looking for three new colleagues for temporary positions of 12-18 months in Södra Visby’s home care service. Perhaps you are the one who wants a job where care, responsibility, and relationships are the most important. With us, you meet people with different life stories and needs, and no day is like the other.

As an employee in home care service, you start from a well-planned workday, but since you work with people, things can change, and therefore you need to enjoy a flexible job. You visit clients independently, but you always belong to a team where you support each other and share responsibility. Your workday takes you around Visby – on foot, by bike, or by car.

With us, you work in a team with engaged colleagues, and you get a meaningful job where your presence really matters. We offer ongoing professional development and wellness benefits.

Your tasks

In your work, you will, among other things:

• Provide support, help, and motivation based on each client’s individual needs and wishes.
• Perform personal care.
• Carry out medical interventions on delegation.
• Assist with cooking, escorting, shopping, cleaning, and laundry.
• Work based on clear implementation plans with the individual at the center.
• Work flexibly based on the needs of the organization, including in other groups or departments.
• Establish and follow up on implementation plans.
• Document interventions in our digital systems.
• Maintain contact with relatives.
• Collaborate with home health care, rehabilitation, case managers, and other home care groups.
• Use our digital planning tool as support in everyday life.

The work is scheduled and includes day, evening, and every other weekend shifts.

Who are you?

We primarily seek you who are a trained nursing assistant. Nursing assistant is a protected professional title, and certification from the National Board of Health and Welfare is required according to current regulations. Experience from home care or nursing work is meritorious.

If you are a residential assistant, we would like you to have a completed upper secondary education. It is an advantage if you have a healthcare-oriented education, such as a care assistant, as well as experience in nursing work or home care.

About you: To thrive with us, you are flexible and can adapt to the changes of everyday life. You work independently in the client’s home, but also enjoy close collaboration with colleagues and other professionals. You are service-oriented and empathetic, creating security through respectful interaction. With a holistic view, you see both the client’s needs and the organization’s goals, and you can analyze situations and find solutions in everyday life.

Driver’s license and mobility: For the position, it is required that you can cycle and navigate in all weather and throughout the year. A B driver's license is an advantage.

Language skills: In accordance with the new language requirement, you need to have a good command of Swedish in both spoken and written form to ensure safe care and proper documentation.

We place great emphasis on personal suitability.
