Gain freedom and flexibility in your working life and give the elderly Copenhagen residents a meaningful life

Right now we are seeking professionally skilled social and health care assistants who want to help provide elderly Copenhagen residents with a healthy and dignified existence in their own homes. You can be a recent graduate or have many years of experience.

You can choose to apply for a job in one or more local areas. If you apply in several areas, there is a greater chance of a match.

A daily life with diverse tasks

In the City of Copenhagen's Home Care, you feel the city's heartbeat and the changing seasons, when you cycle through the city to visit our elderly. We work to ensure the elderly experience self-determination, and that our help increases their ability to manage daily life in their own home. We work in cross-disciplinary teams with near visitation (TTN). This means that all professional groups meet and discuss how we can collaborate to help citizens. We agree who can best help the citizen professionally, and we work to tailor services and assistance to the citizens' needs and wishes.

Your tasks will primarily be to

• provide holistic care in selected complex care pathways
• assess the citizen and perform nursing tasks
• document, follow up on and coordinate processes
• collaborate professionally with colleagues, mentor students and be a professional role model for SSH colleagues

We offer

You will receive a thorough introduction where you will be trained to handle initiation visits with new citizens. We ensure that your professional skills are put to use and discuss your particular areas of interest, and whether you wish to specialize.

You have the option to work either day shifts or a fixed rotation in the evenings (either 7/7 or 5/2). You will work independently with responsibility for your own route, but your colleagues are always just a phone call away.
