Some residents have pets. Threats, violence, and suicide may occur, but we have methods to manage these situations. You will be part of a team of support assistants and support pedagogues. You will work with social documentation in the Treserva documentation system and continuously follow up and revise implementation plans. We work with activity-adapted and flexible schedules. Needs are continuously adjusted according to operational requirements, which means you must be prepared to work days, evenings, weekends, and overnight shifts. We value your ideas and commitment, and together we create conditions for development and an independent life for our residents. Does this sound like something for you?
