Description

Are you an experienced support assistant or assistant nurse ready to take the next step in your career? Then this job is perfect for you! We offer an inspiring and varied work within the Social Services Administration's Staffing Unit. Here you get the chance to be a crucial resource reinforcement and make a difference in our operations, where you will primarily serve as a pillar during acute vacancies. You thrive with many balls in the air, and you know that the users' needs always come first.

Responsibilities

Working within a staffing pool means much more than just covering where needed. It requires a higher level of competence, as well as a personality that allows you to quickly adapt to different situations, workplaces, and people.

As a pool employee, you constantly meet new colleagues, routines, and expectations. This means you need to be flexible, solution-oriented, and secure in your professional role. The ability to build trust quickly and contribute to the work group immediately is crucial. You will also perform delegated health and medical care tasks according to the Health and Medical Care Act.

It is precisely this combination – competence + flexibility + right attitude – that makes the job both challenging and developmental. Being able to step in, deliver quality, and meet people where they are is a strength that makes pool employees invaluable.

Responsibilities as a support assistant:

• Provide support and help to users in their daily lives, both at home and in other activities. Follow and document individual plans for each user and ensure their needs are met.
• Work together with other professionals to create a safe and developmental environment for the user. Participate in and support activities that promote social participation and personal development.
• Provide support in medication management and ensure that the right medications are taken at the right time. Handle and support various types of training or rehabilitation that the user may need.
• Work to promote and maintain good communication with users and their relatives. Ensure that all routines and guidelines are followed to maintain high quality and safety in the work.

As an employee in the staffing pool, you often have the opportunity to manage your own schedule and work in different departments. This gives you broad experience and the opportunity to develop within different areas. The Staffing Unit places great emphasis on induction and continuous competence development to ensure that staff are well prepared to work in different environments and with different tasks.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who have education in the Care and Nursing Program or the Child and Youth Program with a focus on pedagogical and social work. Preferably with professional experience in similar operations. The work as an assistant nurse/support assistant in the Staffing Pool places high demands on personal responsibility, flexibility, and a professional appearance.

As a person, you are confident, structured, quality-conscious, service-oriented, and have great personal engagement. We place great emphasis on personal suitability with a focus on you enjoying large variations in work. You have good computer skills and master Swedish in speech and writing.

A Category B driver's license is required.
