About the job

We are looking for temporary staff for the holidays in December at the care centers Præstevænget and Grønnegården. If you would like to make a difference for our residents, we may have the perfect shift for you.

Over the holidays we can already see that we could use an extra hand for day and evening shifts. Since we are a 24-hour facility, night shifts may occur, but that is not where our greatest need lies.

We are looking for both you who have experience in the field and you who have never worked with the elderly before but want to learn. We promise that we will take good care of you and prepare you well for the tasks.

With us shifts are a bit like a Christmas buffet

You choose for yourself what you want.

At Præstevænget and Grønnegården we place a lot of emphasis on people enjoying themselves at work. Therefore we work with flexible shift planning, where you as a temp book the shifts that fit into your life.

Do you want to work a lot? Fantastic.

Do you want to work a little? That’s perfectly okay too.

Together with your shift planner you will find the balance between the number of shifts that suits you and the needs of the workplace.

How to apply

We’ve made it easy. Just send an SMS to 51 50 73 78 Michelle Hauge, Shift Planner.

Just write your name and your education, and we will contact you for a further arrangement. Upon hiring, a satisfactory criminal record check must be presented.

Plejecentrene Præstevænget and Grønnegården are led by Center Manager Ane Søemosegaard Friis, and we collect good people. We have received some recommendations from current and former temps, so if you want to hear their words, see here:

Natasja, unskilled temp at Præstevænget

"As a temp you meet many different people, from residents and relatives to colleagues of all ages. I have not felt that I am seen differently because I am a temp. There is a balance in the staff group. At Præstevænget I have only experienced that we are good at helping each other and getting advice if something could be done differently next time. You will experience a fantastic sense of community and many experiences. "

Susanne, SSH temp at Præstevænget

" Temp at Præstevænget can be highly recommended. I am now permanent after 3 months, but beforehand I had worked as a temp for a longer period. Everyone is kind, nice and helpful and takes really good care of new colleagues. Everyone works on an equal footing and everyone is aware that temps are important for the house to run at max. You can get all the shifts you want, but a no thank you is also respected.

Mette, unskilled temp at Grønnegården

" I can warmly recommend taking shifts as a temp at Grønnegården.

Personally I have very good experiences with the place and feel very comfortable together with the residents and most of my colleagues. I think there is a really good mood, and you are well received as a temp.

One of the things I especially appreciate is that time is taken with each resident. There is room to see the person behind and not just feel that you have to hurry to the next task. It means a lot to me in my work."

Ikar, unskilled former temp at Præstevænget

"My time as SSH/SSA temp at Præstevænget has been an educational and rewarding experience. I’ve gained close insight into daily life at a nursing home and met many different residents with various needs.

Especially working with residents with dementia has given me valuable experience. I have learned how important it is to be patient, present, and able to adapt to the individual resident.

As a temp I have also gained responsibility and opportunities to develop professionally and personally. I have enjoyed my colleagues and the trust shown to me, and I can clearly recommend Præstevænget to others who want to gain experience in elder care."

William, unskilled temp at Grønnegården

"I have been very happy with my time as a temp at Grønnegården. I quickly became part of the community and had great colleagues who helped me get started, even though I was unskilled.

The work has also been meaningful and educational because you get to make a real difference for the residents and make their day better."

Karina, SSH, temp at Præstevænget

"Temp at Præstevænget YES PLEASE!

I have been a temp at Præstevænget for 3 years, and I can’t stop.

It is a place where professionalism is incredibly high, a place where there is room to do the little extra, and where you as a temp are very well received. Here there is room for laughter, joy and inclusivity. Staff and residents must simply be among the kindest in the country."
