Vacant job

We are now looking for a care assistant who wants to help launch our new facility, Harvestad, in Linköping, opening in November.

At Forenede Care, you get a unique opportunity to be involved from the very beginning and shape the operations. Here, we build a warm, safe, and homely environment together where our residents can live their lives – for their whole lives.

What you get with us You will become part of a positive and learning culture with present managers who support and develop you in your role. We believe in engagement, participation, and joy in work – and see you as our most important resource. Together, we are creating the future of elderly care.

About the facility Harvestad is a specialized housing facility focused on dementia care and has 80 places.

Who are you? You are engaged, secure, and care about your fellow human beings. You easily build good relationships and treat both residents and colleagues with warmth and respect. You are service-oriented, responsible, and thrive working both independently and in a team.

About the role As a care assistant here, you work to provide good care, service, and nursing based on the residents' individual needs and wishes, in accordance with assistance decisions, with a strong focus on quality. In your daily work, you support residents with personal care, help with meal preparation and serving, and handle alarms. An important part of the role is also contributing to social cohesion and meaningful days – through conversations, activities, outings, or other elements that create quality of life.

You also work with delegated tasks from licensed personnel, such as medication management and exercise. At our facility, the social perspective is just as important as the nursing aspect – we want our residents to live their lives, for their whole lives.

We warmly welcome your application – we look forward to building something fantastic together!
