With us, you will have the opportunity to work at three group homes located centrally in Kristianstad, specifically in Viby (Härfågelvägen) and the Vilan/Långebro area (Östra Borggatan and Södra Långgatan).

Since the job requires communication and documentation, we expect you to be computer literate and proficient in Swedish, both spoken and written. Experience working with journal systems such as LifeCare is an advantage. You should also have a B driver's license. You are a team player who can also take initiative and make quick decisions.
