About the job We are now seeking a new colleague for the overnight shift at BmSS Skalskärsgatan in southwestern Gothenburg. Skalskärsgatan 3, located near the sea, is a residential facility with special services (bmss) specializing in autism. We are looking for someone with experience working with the autism target group. We prefer candidates who are experienced in working with individuals displaying challenging behavior. The role of support assistant involves supporting and being present for our residents in their daily lives. All staff have the responsibility to create conditions for providing support, assistance, and structure in everyday activities. Your role also includes developing implementation plans, establishing and updating work descriptions, and contributing to maintaining good quality in operations. The work includes delegated nursing tasks and social documentation. You will also collaborate with legal guardians, family members, and licensed health and social care personnel. The goal is to provide each resident with a predictable daily life where dignity is self-evident. We work with clear routines to create structure and security for our residents. Working hours are scheduled for the overnight shift, and you will be one of two support assistants working the awake night shift. About you We are looking for someone with a degree from the Health and Care Program, Support Assistant training, or Children and Leisure Program with a focus on social or pedagogical work.

Multiple years of experience working with the autism target group is a requirement for this position.
