The home care service is part of the Social Services Administration, which consists of 600 employees with a broad range of tasks.

The purpose is increased independence and healthier elderly people. Therefore, it is important that our employees have an interest in digital solutions and actively work to enable healthier elderly people.

We want you to feel secure when you start working with us and offer an introduction for new employees.

Krokom, the municipality in the middle of Jämtland

Krokom Municipality's borders stretch from the shores of Lake Storsjön in the south, to the vast and wild mountains in the north, and in the east, the large forests of the northern interior take over. Here live just over 15,700 inhabitants, in the middle of Jämtland County, with proximity to good communications to the rest of Sweden. Here there are fantastic opportunities for a rich cultural and outdoor life. People move here and want to stay, because here life itself takes place. The municipality is part of the Sami administrative area, which means we work to strengthen the Sami language, make the culture visible, and give the Sami people influence.
