Social- and Health Care Assistant for mixed day and evening shifts, with work every 2nd or 3rd weekend - Markusgården

Are you looking for a position where your professional breadth makes a noticeable difference every day? And would you like to work somewhere where we see the whole person, meet residents at eye level, and insist on creating good days?

Markusgården is seeking a social- and health assistant who is passionate about working with people with dementia and who puts quality of life at the top of the agenda.

At Markusgården, 73 unique people live across eight residential units, all of whom have a dementia diagnosis or dementia-like behavior. Many of our residents have complex health challenges in everyday life. It requires a patient and professionally well-founded social- and health assistant who masters the balance between care, structure, and pedagogical exploration.

We prioritize both the lived and the living life in a home-like and safe environment. We work from a rehabilitative mindset with help to self-help. All professional groups work closely together daily, and the focus is that we think together about solving the core task.

There are many different tasks, therefore we also have many different professional groups that together solve the core task.

Professionalism at the forefront

We believe that the best care is created through dialogue and joint sparring. Therefore we hold triage once a week, and resident conferences every other week. Here we spar together as management, municipal home care nurses, and dementia nurses to find the best solutions for the individual resident.

A strong interdisciplinary community

With us you are never alone. You will be part of a colorful and competent team consisting of social- and health aides/assistants, pedagogical assistants, occupational therapists, and nurses. Our diversity is our greatest strength when we must view the resident's needs from all angles.

Room for development

We take care of your development from day one, with a thorough introduction to the house. Since we are a training site for social- and health assistant students (both in regular and psychiatry practice), you will also have plenty of opportunities to influence and inspire future health professionals.

We also work according to the City of Aalborg's strategies: Strategies for Senior and Care
