At Bøgebakken we work in teams with fixed colleagues and help each other across the houses. We are several professional groups under one roof, and together we work to support each individual resident's quality of life.

The daily triage is a common professional gathering point, where we share observations, reflect on our practice and develop our professional skills.

About us Bøgebakken is a lovely newer care center, located in scenic surroundings in Allerslev, Lejre Municipality - close to Lejre Station (10 minutes on foot).

10 minutes by car from Roskilde, 27 minutes by car from Holbæk, 20 minutes by car from Høje-Taastrup.

The care center consists of seven smaller units, where between 9-12 lovely residents live in each house. Two of the seven houses are sheltered units for residents with a complex dementia condition. Three houses have 2-3 temporary places.

The center is built around the care principles in the Living and Living concept, where residents' daily life is central with person-centered care and dialogue as the focus in the relationship to our residents, the individual needs and resources. The staff groups are built into co-governed teams and work from the rehabilitative approach.

The staff see the residents as equals and collaborate with residents and relatives with care, respect and empathy. We have a good collaboration with relatives, whom we see as important partners and resources.

We work with competency development through personal competency cards and there are SPL/SSA meetings held once a month, with teaching and sparring.

We are age- and experience-mixed, a varied staff group of both social- and health care helpers/assistants and center nurses, who are passionate about our job and who want to ensure our residents as cozy and content-rich daily life as possible. We have close multidisciplinary collaboration with e.g. dementia coordinator, pharmaconomist, mobility coordinator and training therapists.

In addition we have a large and very active network of volunteers who want to help make Bøgebakken a good place to live for our residents.

Bøgebakken prioritizes visible leadership. Leadership and staff prioritize together the good working environment and the good tone. In addition we emphasize arranging the right competencies for the right task.
