About the job

Would you like to help create a nursing home where dignity is something we do - not just something we say? At Vandtårnsvej Nursing Home we are looking for a social and health care assistant for night shift.

We believe that a nursing home must first and foremost be a home. A place where people meet with respect, influence and the opportunity to live a meaningful life. Therefore we take our professional expertise seriously, but not ourselves too seriously.

As an employee you won't just be part of a new nursing home. You will become part of the team that helps create the culture.

It offers us

  • A modern nursing home with 80 apartments distributed across three houses
  • A workplace focused on dignity, relationships and high professional standards
  • Visible management close to daily life
  • A strong interprofessional collaboration
  • Thorough introduction and onboarding
  • Opportunity for professional development and responsibility
  • A workplace that makes room for humor, diversity and new ideas

About the night Every night we are 1 SSA and 2 SSH on duty.

We are responsible for our own house, but work closely together and help each other across houses. We switch houses every month in a fixed rotation, so we get to know all residents and can discuss professionally with each other about, among other things, circadian rhythm plans and the daily planning.

As a night shift you have a great responsibility. You help assess residents' needs and plan the night's tasks, and we have a lot of freedom to organize the work in a way that makes the most sense for the residents.

We are a team that values diversity, where we take care of each other and get along well. At the same time, we are good at helping each other cover shifts when everyday life requires a bit of flexibility.

We are already working with bed-sensing technology (Emfit) and expect to have digital supervision/Teton implemented during the next year.

We hope that you

  • Are trained as a social- and health care assistant
  • Work independently and take responsibility
  • Thrive in interprofessional collaboration
  • Contribute to a good working environment
  • Meet people with respect, empathy and dignity

Practical The position is 28 hours per week in a 7/7 rotation with every second weekend worked.

Employment from January 1, 2027 or shortly thereafter; interviews will be held in weeks 47 and 49.

A good nursing home is not created by buildings or fine words. It is created by people.

In Holbæk Municipality we actively work for diverse workplaces where there is room for difference. All qualified applicants are therefore encouraged to apply for the position - regardless of gender, age, disability, ethnicity, political and religious beliefs or sexual orientation.

Holbæk Municipality's personnel policy sets the framework for our values and the way we meet each other and the residents.
