About the job

Become the night's safe anchor.

Do you want to create safety and dignity, while the rest of the city sleeps? We are seeking an SSA for a permanent night shift in 28 hours. Are you passionate about high professionalism, presence and ensuring that our 80 residents can sleep safely and wake up to a good new day? At Horsens Friplejehjem we work according to the motto "Lev hele livet" - even at night. As part of Danske Diakonhjem we meet residents and colleagues with equality, presence and respect.

Why choose the night with us? Because you become a key person in creating the good life in the late hours. With us the night shift is not just surveillance; it is care, relief and the calm presence that makes a difference when darkness falls.

  • Safety and calm: You take responsibility for creating a peaceful atmosphere. We prioritise time for subdued conversation or a comforting hand when sleep eludes
  • Influence and responsibility: You work independently, but with a strong back-up. You have the freedom to plan the night so tasks are carried out with respect for residents' rhythms
  • A house with visions: Even though you work when others sleep, you are an important part of our multidisciplinary community. We place high value on handover and collaboration with day and evening shifts, so we lift the professionalism together
  • Multidisciplinary well-being: We offer a lively house with a diverse group of colleagues consisting of (team coordinators, nurses, assistants, aides, physiotherapist etc.), who pull together with high spirits and focus on competence development
  • Thorough introduction: We ensure you are properly prepared for the task
  • Good conditions: Salary according to collective agreement with FOA, health insurance via Danske Diakonhjem, advantageous meal arrangement and smoke-free working hours

About you

  • You are trained SSA and take pride in your night-time professional expertise
  • You thrive in independent work, but are a good team player when required
  • You see documentation in Nexus as an important tool to ensure continuity of care
  • You have a warm heart for elder care and respect each person's life history and need for safety in the late hours
  • You are self-assured and can keep calm in acute situations

The practical

  • Start: As soon as possible
  • Hours: Generally 28 hours per week
  • Shifts: Fixed night shift with weekend shift every 2 weeks in odd weeks
  • Workplace: Horsens Friplejehjem, Buchwalds Bro 1, 8700 Horsens
