It is the strength of our people that makes Avesta unique. Together we build Avesta's future – do you want to be part of it? The Care Administration works based on the core value that all people we meet have equal worth and are unique. Within the administration are IFO, LSS services, social psychiatry, health and medical care, home care and special residences. Here about 900 employees work around the clock for our target groups. 10 position(s). As a temporary caregiver, you are employed by the Staffing Unit but work within the Care Administration's operations where there is the greatest need for temporary staff. You will first be introduced at one workplace, but if needed and desired, there is the possibility to work at multiple workplaces. We use the staffing system Time Care Pool where you as a temporary employee make yourself available for work. We apply direct booking, which is why it is very important that your availability is correct. If the need arises with short notice, we will send an SMS request first. Work shifts vary in length and working hours include daytime, evenings, and nights. To be employed as a temporary caregiver, it is therefore important that you can work inconvenient hours. Being a personal assistant is a responsible job that provides personal development and great joy in return. The work includes personal care, such as help with meals, dressing and undressing, personal hygiene, and other situations where the user needs help, such as participating in leisure interests. The work is carried out primarily in the user's home or another place where the user is located. As a support assistant in a group home, you manage the user's home, which includes daily tasks such as cleaning, cooking, laundry, and shopping. Delegated nursing care may also occur. Your work is based on the user's implementation plan, which is established to meet the user's needs and decisions. Here you help enable the user's participation, development, and increased independence. The work includes personal and medical care such as help with meals, dressing and undressing, personal hygiene, transfers, and accompaniment. Qualifications The core of our work is care, and good conduct is of utmost importance. You have a genuine interest in working with people and a desire to make a difference in their lives and daily routines. The work requires that you can collaborate with others, are attentive, and conduct yourself with great respect toward those you meet in all different situations. Working with people always means that unforeseen situations can arise, and you are someone who can stay calm when the situation demands it. You have respectful conduct and always strive for the best possible encounter. We are looking for someone who is of legal age, is responsible, and has personal maturity. It is important that you are confident in the Swedish language, both spoken and written. It is a merit if you are trained as a nursing assistant or childcare worker and/or have previous experience of similar work. Basic computer skills are a requirement. Work in personal assistance and group homes may involve awkward working positions and transfers, so you should have the physical ability to manage this. A B-category driving license is a merit.
