Vacant job

We are looking for four care assistants in Hemvårdsområde 3, Mariestad

Hemvårdsområde 3 in Mariestad is part of the elderly care services and includes the groups Ekudden and Guldvingen in the southwestern part of the city. Here, 25 employees work to provide the best possible support to our residents!

We are now looking for four care assistants for permanent positions. Are you a positive, flexible, and responsive team player who is passionate about making a difference? Do you want a dynamic job among villas, apartments, and terraced houses? Then this might be for you!

Job Responsibilities

The duties consist of personal care, delegated nursing tasks such as venipuncture and extensive wound dressing changes, as well as service and daily chores. The job also involves close collaboration with planners, nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and unit managers. The work is largely independent, although double staffing is also used.

We work with permanent care contacts and proxy assignments, where you as an employee have the opportunity to grow with the responsibility and simultaneously be part of the development of the operations.

The home care groups are based at Mariegärdes Väg 7. We currently work on a 14-week schedule with day and evening shifts, and you will also work three out of seven weekends. The schedule also includes resource shifts to cover absences at other work locations.

The positions we are looking for are four permanent positions. Start date is as soon as possible according to agreement.

Requirements and Qualifications

For the position, we are looking for you who are a trained care assistant and preferably have work experience from home care.

We are looking for you who are responsive, positive, and secure in individual meetings with the user and have a good ability to work independently with care tasks. Your inspiring and positive attitude contributes to good community and joy among both the residents and your colleagues.

You must be flexible as the work is based on close collaboration with your colleagues, where you are expected to be able to step in and support as needed in all three groups, also in other areas through resource shifts.

We would like you to have experience in dealing with people with mental health issues. You are also expected to have good knowledge of the Swedish language, both orally and in writing. This is because many of your tasks involve receiving instructions and forwarding information in a correct and clear manner.

We assume that you have a certain level of digital maturity in computer and mobile phone usage as we use these as work tools.

A valid driver's license (Category B) is required for the position.

We place great importance on personal qualities and good references.
