You also perform certain health and medical care tasks according to delegation.

We work based on Individual Needs in Focus (IBIC), a person-centered approach within social services that starts from each individual's resources, needs, and goals.

Description of the Workplace

Hedbacka is a care and nursing home with a dementia focus, located in the scenic area of Söderala just outside Söderhamn. The facility has 49 beds distributed across seven units.

Each unit has a cozy common room and dining room where residents can eat their meals and socialize in a safe and pleasant environment. For joint activities and celebrations, there is also a larger meeting room where we gather for various events and festivities.

Therefore, we offer activities several times a week, such as music sessions, baking, walks, and joint excursions. The activities are designed based on the residents' interests, wishes, and abilities to promote participation and well-being.

During the summer months, our large and lush garden is a natural meeting place where we enjoy spending time and conducting various outdoor activities.

With us, every day is an opportunity to contribute to security, quality of life, and a meaningful daily life for the people we are here for.
