Vacant job

Stockholm – our capital city filled with millions of dreams, expectations, and ambitions. We work for everyone who lives here today and in the future. Now we are looking for you who want to think big, new, and different with us – for the people of Stockholm.

Welcome to us

Do you want to make a real difference this summer? Come and work with us at Södermalm's Care and Support Homes! We have 6 care and support homes located on Södermalm. Two of our homes focus on dementia care, while four have a primarily somatic focus but also offer some places for dementia patients. One of our homes also provides short-term accommodation.

With us, you will find one of the most important summer jobs where your contribution is visible and appreciated every day. We offer a pleasant work environment where you can grow in your professional role and contribute to ensuring our residents live a dignified and secure life.

What we offer

To ensure you feel welcome and confident in our routines, we provide an introduction that includes both theoretical and practical training. Together, we will go through the tasks included in your daily work – such as nursing care, medication delegation, reporting, documentation, as well as lifting techniques and ergonomics using various aids. The introduction lasts one full day and is held in May.

As a nursing assistant/care aide, you will have scheduled working hours during the day, evening, and weekends. We are also looking for night staff. We prefer that you can work at least 4 consecutive weeks during the period of June–August.

When you start your work, you will have a supervisor/mentor who will guide you and walk alongside you during your first shifts to get to know both the residents and the routines.

Your role

As a nursing assistant or care aide, you will become an important part of our team, where we together create a secure and meaningful existence for our residents. We work based on assistance decisions and individual implementation plans, where the individual's participation and self-determination are always guiding principles for us.

A typical day with us means supporting the residents in their daily lives with everything from good care and support to social interaction. This can involve personal care, support during meals, or contributing to a meaningful day through activities and walks in our local area. With a sensitive and humble approach, you work to ensure that the residents feel secure and have a good quality of life based on their own wishes. The role also includes social documentation to ensure that we together provide care of the highest quality.

Your skills and experience

We are looking for someone who meets one of the following requirements:

• Upper secondary or vocational education within care and support (degree or ongoing).
• Ongoing studies in nursing or medicine programs.
• Other education or experience that the employer assesses as equivalent.

You also have:

• Knowledge within care and support work.
• Good knowledge of Swedish in both speech and writing.
• Computer, mobile, and system proficiency for documentation and reporting.
• At least 18 years of age.

It is an advantage if you have:

• Experience working within elderly care.
• Experience working within healthcare and social care.

We place great emphasis on the following personal qualities:

Stable: You are secure, stress-resistant, and possess personal maturity.

Service-oriented: You are sensitive to the needs of the care recipient.

Team player: You are happy to share knowledge and are open to learning from others.

Empathetic: You have a genuine interest in working in this profession.

Flexible: You adapt easily to new situations.

Your application and the recruitment process

• To focus on the right competence, you do not need to attach a cover letter. Instead, we base our selection on your CV and the selection questions you answer in the application.
• We have ongoing selection and quick feedback via email and SMS.
• First interview: If you proceed, you will be invited to a short interview conducted digitally via Zoom or by phone.
• On-site meeting: If you proceed after the first interview, you will be scheduled for a personal meeting at the facility.
• Criminal record check: We will obtain a criminal record extract according to current guidelines.
• ID card: We will ask to see your professional license/ID.
• Protected job title: For employment as a nursing assistant, a valid certificate is required; otherwise, you will be employed as a care aide.
