Do you want a meaningful job where you make a real difference in people's lives every day?

Gruvrisgården special housing consists of a wonderful team and we are now looking for new colleagues! Gruvrisgården is located at the top of Galgberget and we have 23 apartments. The apartments are distributed over two departments on two different floors, both focused on high care. Our workgroup includes care assistants, nursing assistants, team leaders, and unit managers. Together with the healthcare professionals, we are a great team where we help and learn from each other, all to provide the customer with the best possible care and support. Customer satisfaction is important to us!

The work of the Care Administration is based on a common value base where safety is a central concept in working with the individual customer.
