Vacant job

We are looking for two dedicated assistant nurses for our charming care and housing facility in Onsala. The positions are scheduled for day/evening shifts and every other weekend, where you will work on the somatic units.

We are looking for you who are positive, responsible, and thrive in a team environment. Here, you will become part of a knowledgeable and supportive team where care and engagement are at the center. We work with reflection and participation to develop the operations together, in close collaboration with our managers.

Ekhaga is an inspiring workplace with a secure and developmental environment. Here you have the opportunity to contribute to a meaningful daily life for our residents while growing in your professional role. There is some possibility to adjust the degree of employment based on your preferences. We offer training and several benefits.

What you get with us:

• Training that makes your work easier, for example, care hygiene, handling dementia patients, and ergonomics.

• A benefits portal with discounts and offers. For example, you can buy cinema tickets and public transport trips at good prices.

• A coaching and supportive manager who works together with you in daily life.

• Clear working methods and routines that simplify your job.

• Career and development opportunities. For example, you can become a group leader with personnel responsibility or get a specific subject responsibility as a dementia coordinator or hygiene officer.

In Onsala, you will find Ekhaga Care and Housing Facility with a total of 94 apartments. Here, dedicated and knowledgeable staff work with elderly people who have suffered from somatic illness or dementia. Ekhaga is operated on a contract basis by Vardaga.

• We are a dementia-certified facility, which means that everyone who works here is trained in dementia and interaction through Vardaga's Dementia Academy.

• We apply fixed schedules that include working varying day/evening shifts and every other weekend. As an employee, you have some possibility to influence your own working hours in consultation with your team and group leader.

• We have a collaboration with the company Ung Omsorg. This means that a team of young people aged 14–18 visits us on weekends and holidays. Ung Omsorg does various activities to add gold to the lives of our residents.

• You have a group leader who spends most of their time working close to you in the operations. Becoming a group leader can also be a career opportunity for you as an assistant nurse.

• We work with animals in care here and have regular visits from therapy dogs.

• We are always working to come up with new, exciting activities for our residents. At Ekhaga, we have a Senior Center with two activity pedagogues employed who support the operations by creating activity programs for our elderly.

As an assistant nurse, you are incredibly important!

Your task is to provide quality of life. With your help, our residents can maintain their lifestyle and habits. You see each person and interpret what they need. At the same time, you learn a lot about care, aging, and how to treat people.

You are closest to the resident and thus have a key role in the team with nurses, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists. You also participate in care planning and write social documentation.

With heart in the right place Here you get to work in a strong culture where we are driven by our vision: We make the world a little better, one person at a time. It is incredibly important that you share our vision and our four values:

Respect: Here, everyone has the right to a dignified life with physical, mental, and social well-being.

Responsibility: Here we have employees who dare and want to, and managers who listen and lead.

Simplicity: Here it is easy to influence and to be an employee or customer.

Knowledge: Here we reflect, learn from each other, and utilize everyone's competence.

Together we continuously work to ensure that our values permeate our interactions, both with each other and with everyone who lives here.

We would like you to be a trained assistant nurse and have worked a few years in elderly care. Good computer skills and experience with documentation are also meritorious. Good knowledge of the Swedish language in speech and writing is a requirement, but otherwise, your CV is not the most important thing. If you share our values and have the right qualities, we will give you support and the opportunity to grow.

We believe that you:

- are attracted by varied work and enjoy meeting people in different situations.

- are a creative person who dares to think for yourself and take responsibility.

- thrive working in a team and supporting your colleagues.
