Do you want to make a real difference in people's everyday lives? The Social Services and Care Administration in Katrineholm Municipality works with support, care, and public administration for people in different stages of life. Our mission is broad and spans several operations, from elderly care and home healthcare to individual and family services as well as public guardianship. We meet people with different needs, circumstances, and life situations. What is common to our work is that we contribute to security, independence, and a dignified life. With us, you become part of an operation that develops and makes a concrete difference every day for Katrineholm residents. We are now looking for temporary staff for elderly care and support services. Here you work close to people and contribute to a safe and dignified everyday life for our users, while gaining valuable work experience. Are you interested? Apply to us! 10 position(s). WORK DUTIES Your work duties are to contribute and create the conditions for our users to have a meaningful, secure, and active everyday life. The work should always be based on each individual user's needs. You support users in performing personal care and hygiene, for example showering and toilet visits. Care also includes everyday activities such as cleaning, laundry, cooking, and leisure activities. Some of the work duties that occur are performed under delegation from licensed healthcare personnel. This means that after passing a knowledge test, you can be given responsibility for distributing medication. Working hours vary and are based on the operation's needs and involve work during day, evening, and weekends. We are also looking for temporary staff who can work nights. In elderly care, night shifts are spent awake, which means you are in active duty throughout the night shift. In support services and social psychiatry, both awake night shifts and so-called on-call nights occur, where you sleep at the workplace but are available for the operation's needs. QUALIFICATIONS We are looking for someone who has started or completed upper secondary education and you must be at least 18 years old. We would like you to have previous work experience or have done an internship. Experience working with people in need of support, care, and services is considered meritorious. You have a positive attitude and enjoy helping others. In some operations, you need to be able to cycle, and other operations require you to have a category B driving license for manual transmission. The work involves a lot of communication with people as well as documentation, which requires you to be able to communicate in Swedish both verbally and in writing. To work for us, you will therefore take a language test. You are also independent, can take responsibility on your own, and have a flexible approach.
