JOB DESCRIPTION

Do you want to work to provide elderly individuals with a safe, meaningful, and dignified everyday life? Then this job is for you.

In Ljungby Municipality, there are 7 special accommodations - Brunnsgården, Haraberget, Åsikten, Ljungsätra, Ljungberga, Åbrinken in Lagan, and Björkäng in Lidhult. The work here is both important and varied, and you will become a central part of the care recipients' lives.

As an employee, you work closely with the care recipients and support them in what is important for their well-being. This can involve personal care, assistance during meals, help with transfers, medication management, and creating safety and structure throughout the day. A significant part of the job also involves contributing to an active and social everyday life. This means encouraging and participating in activities, socializing, conversing, and creating a pleasant atmosphere, as well as supporting care recipients in maintaining their interests and abilities.

QUALIFICATIONS

You always start from the individual needs, wishes, and conditions of the residents.

We are therefore looking for someone who has a genuine interest in people, is responsible, and has good collaboration skills. It is important that you are flexible, secure, and have our care recipients' needs in focus. You need to be proficient in the Swedish language, both in writing and speaking, as documentation is an important part of your work. The job requires that you can handle a computer and phone as these are our working tools.

The work is done in teams, where all roles are important. You are never alone and always have supportive colleagues by your side.

OTHER

You apply for the position via Offentliga Jobb.

Grades and certificates should not be attached to the application but brought to any interview.

For us, balance in life is important! Here you can combine work with family and leisure. We apply flexible hours and remote work in the operations where it allows. We offer subsidized annual tickets with Länstrafiken, wellness benefits, and much more. You also have free membership in the staff club, which provides opportunities for free training and swimming as well as participation in other activities.

Through the initiative "A Municipality Free from Violence," we actively work to prevent and counteract violence in society for a safer future. As part of this, it may be a requirement for several positions to submit a criminal record extract.

Our operations have equal treatment representatives who actively work for a good working environment and support managers in equal treatment issues. This way, we ensure that everyone can work under equal conditions and is treated equally.
