About the job

Svendebjerghave is developing, and we are seeking social and health care assistants who want to help shape the future. From January 1, 2027, 34 of Svendebjerghave's temporary placements will transition to Region of East Denmark and the Center for Citizen-Friendly Health . We will therefore have the opportunity to jointly develop our workflows, strengthen professional practice, and leave our mark on the new department.

We are looking for social and health care assistants for mixed shifts who will use their competencies, take responsibility, and contribute to safe and coherent citizen care pathways. You will be involved in shift planning so that, as far as possible, your wishes are taken into account.

A day with professional challenges and meaning At Svendebjerghave we work with citizens who need a temporary health care and rehabilitation offer after hospitalization or staying in their own home. Citizens often have complex, subacute or chronic problems that require clinical observations, assessments, and interdisciplinary collaboration.

As a social and health care assistant, you play an important role in the citizen's care, treatment, and rehabilitation. Your tasks include, among others:

  • Personal care and support based on the citizen's needs and resources.
  • Observation and response to changes in the citizen's condition.
  • Health care tasks and medication management within your area of competence.
  • Rehabilitation, mobilization, and support for the citizen's independence.
  • Documentation and collaboration with citizens, relatives, nurses, and therapists.

We base our work on the citizen's wishes and goals and work together to create good and coherent pathways.

Professionalism, development, and community At our workplace you will have the opportunity to use your professional skills broadly, develop your competencies, and influence our collective practice. We prioritize professional sparring, knowledge sharing, and a good working environment where we help each other and learn together.

You will become part of an interdisciplinary team where there is room for questions, diversity, and new ideas. We ensure introduction and onboarding so you have a good start.

We are looking for you who

  • Are a licensed social and health care assistant.
  • Have an eye for the citizen's needs and can create security.
  • Can observe, assess, and respond to changes in the citizen's condition.
  • Work independently and take responsibility within your area of competence.
  • Thrive with complex citizen pathways and a varied everyday life.
  • Appreciate interdisciplinary collaboration and want to develop your professional skills.
  • Contribute positively to the community and a good working environment.

You do not need to know everything from the start – we develop together.
