A day as an assistant nurse at Blomstergården

Do you want to make a real difference in the daily lives of people with dementia or cognitive impairment? At Blomstergården, we work with heart, competence, and understanding to create safety, structure, and meaning for our residents – every day.

As an assistant nurse on our dementia wards, you provide support, care, and security to people with cognitive disabilities. The work always starts from the individual's needs, wishes, and implementation plans, where your knowledge and empathetic ability are crucial for creating a meaningful and predictable daily life for our residents.

In your role, you will among other things:

• Provide care and interact with people with cognitive impairment in a professional, calm, and respectful manner
• Work based on person-centered care with a focus on safety, continuity, and participation
• Contribute to maintaining structure, routines, and a calm environment that promotes safety and orientation
• Document and follow up on implementation plans
• Collaborate with nurses, rehabilitation staff, relatives, and unit managers
• Participate in workplace meetings, development work, and value-based work

We work together as a team and value a work environment where colleagues support and strengthen each other – especially in situations that can be emotionally or cognitively demanding.

We have regular workplace meetings, care team meetings, and internal training for competence development.

Your qualifications

Requirements:

• Assistant nurse education with a passed degree
• Good Swedish in speech and writing, with the ability to communicate clearly and document correctly

Merits:

• Experience working with people with dementia or other cognitive impairments
• Knowledge of interaction and methods adapted for dementia care, such as validating approach or low-affective interaction
• Experience working in a person-centered and individualized manner
• Experience with documentation in digital systems within care and social services

We are looking for you who have a genuine commitment to providing care and support to people with cognitive impairment. You have the ability to create safety, handle stressful situations calmly, and show great patience in meeting each individual. You treat people with warmth, sensitivity, and respect – always with the individual's needs at the center.

You are responsible, team-oriented, and want to contribute to a workplace characterized by professionalism, care, and development. An employment at Blomstergården means that you should be flexible and able to work on all wards when needed.

Great importance will be attached to your personal qualities.

Krokom, the municipality in the middle of Jämtland

The boundaries of Krokom Municipality 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 inland begin. Here live approximately 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, to make the culture visible, and to give the Sami influence.
