Description We are now seeking a support assistant at 70% for BmSS Båtsman Hisings gata. Båtsman Hisings gata is a residential facility with special services. The 8 residents living with us are between 60-75 years old and have some form of dementia diagnosis. Some of the residents use mobility aids such as wheelchairs or walkers to move around. Each resident's support needs are different; some need assistance with hygiene situations such as showering, toilet visits, changing incontinence pads and changing clothes. Others need more support with structuring their day and getting social interaction. The residents live in their own apartment with a combined bedroom/living room, a toilet and a kitchenette. However, the staff prepares all meals in the shared kitchen where residents can choose whether they want to eat together with their neighbors or prefer to sit alone in their apartment. There is also a shared living room and associated outdoor environment. As a night shift support assistant, you work independently to create security and provide individually adapted support to the residents in their home environment. You document according to applicable guidelines and participate in the development, implementation and follow-up of implementation plans, routines and action plans. You also collaborate with colleagues and other professionals regarding the residents' needs and support measures.
