About the job

Do you want to make a difference – and develop yourself together with us?

Do you like being close to the residents, getting to know the individual person, and helping to create a safe and good everyday life? Do you want to use your professional skills, take responsibility and at the same time develop yourself in your work? Then perhaps it is you we are looking for at Øster Snede Nursing Home.

We are looking for two new colleagues for predominantly evening shifts with some day shifts.

About the job and the tasks

A small nursing home with room for closeness and development. Øster Snede Nursing Home is a cozy nursing home with 23 residents and its own kitchen. Here we have the opportunity to get to know the residents well and notice the things that matter to each individual.

We want to create a daily life where the residents experience safety, closeness and respect for their wishes and routines. It is about both the necessary care and the small moments that make the day good.

We are different as people and employees, and we see that as a strength. We must use each other’s competencies, help each other, and have an open dialogue about the tasks and situations we meet in everyday life. At the same time, we want a workplace where there is room to learn new things, ask questions and develop – both professionally and personally.

We see the person – not only the task

For us, good care is about more than just completing today’s tasks. It is about meeting the residents with respect, listening to their wishes and giving space for them to live their lives on their own terms. We base our approach on each resident’s needs, resources and self-determination. Some days require an extra hand, other days require us to step back a little and give space.

We must be there for the residents – and we must be there for one another.

Our expectations of you

Is it you we are looking for?

We are looking for you who

  • Are educated as a social and health care helper, social and health care assistant, or have another relevant health profession education.
  • Meet the residents with respect, care and interest in the individual person.
  • Can work independently and take responsibility for your tasks.
  • Contribute to good collegiality, where we help each other and share our experiences.
  • Are curious, want to learn new things and wish to develop in your work.

You do not need to know everything from the start. The most important is that you want to learn, bring your professional skills into play and contribute to the community.

Experience from the elder care sector is an advantage, but not a requirement.

Why you should choose us

What you get with us.

With us you will become part of a small nursing home where we work closely together about the residents’ everyday life, and where there is an opportunity to influence how we solve the tasks. We offer:

  • A workplace where you get the opportunity to get to know the residents well.
  • A daily life with both health-professional tasks, care and closeness.
  • Professional sparring and the opportunity to develop your competencies.
  • Room to come with ideas, ask questions and learn from the experiences.
  • Colleagues with different competencies, which we can learn from and use in the community.

As leaders we want to help create frames where you can take responsibility, use your professional skills and develop yourself – both professionally and personally. We do not necessarily have to do everything as we always have, but together find the solutions that make sense for the residents and the daily life at the nursing home. We believe we become better when we share our knowledge, are curious about each other, and dare to speak openly about what works well and what could be done differently.

About us
