About the Position

We have a permanent full-time position (100%) available as a Care Assistant (Undersköterska). If you have education as a Medical Secretary, you are also very interesting to us, as we have a need for a substitute Medical Secretary at our municipal health center.

The care services consist of specialized housing, home care services, and activities for people with disabilities. The current specialized housing has two wards with a total of 18 places.

We work in a cross-professional environment and have close cooperation with home care services, doctors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and psychiatric services to ensure a holistic care process.

Before the summer of 2027, we plan to move into our new health and administration building.
