What you will receive from us:
• Training that makes your work easier, such as care hygiene, communication, and ergonomics.

• A coaching and supportive manager who works closely with you in your daily tasks.

About Granen
Granen is a somatic residence with 36 places spread over 3 floors. The residence is beautifully located near forests and fields in Råby. Here, we aim to provide elderly individuals with care that embodies heart, integrity, and choice. The easiest way to get here is by car or bus.
• You will have a team leader who spends most of their time working closely with you in the operation. Becoming a team leader can also be a career opportunity for you as a nursing assistant.
• We work with animals in care and regularly have visits from various types of animals.
• We continuously strive to come up with new, exciting activities for our residents. For example, we have introduced VR technology that allows for experiences of different journeys, adventures, or games through VR glasses.

As a nursing assistant, you are incredibly important!
Your task is to enhance quality of life. With your help, our residents can maintain their way of living and their habits. You see each person and interpret what they need. At the same time, you learn a lot about care, aging, and how to meet people.
“It’s primarily about meeting people, being able to adapt and read what they need. You gain colleagues and learn a lot about collaboration! There are often many fun activities and outings. It’s a job filled with laughter.” Jirapinya Muangsiri
You are closest to the resident and therefore play a key role in the team with the nurse, occupational therapist, and physiotherapist. You also participate in care planning and write social documentation.
With the heart in the right place
With us, you will work in a strong culture driven by our vision: We make the world a little better, one person at a time. It is extremely important that you share our vision and our four values:
Respect: Everyone has the right to a dignified life with physical, mental, and social well-being.
Responsibility: We have employees who dare and want to, and managers who listen and lead.
Simplicity: It is easy to influence and to be an employee or a customer with us.
Knowledge: We reflect, learn from each other, and utilize everyone’s competence.
Together, we continuously work to ensure that our values permeate our interactions, both with each other and with everyone who lives with us.
“There are good and clear values and goals here that have guided me all the way to perform my work in the best way.” Raquel Castaneda
Your experience and knowledge
We prefer that you are a trained nursing assistant and have worked for a few years in elderly care. Good computer skills and experience with documentation are also advantageous. Proficiency in the Swedish language, both spoken and written, is a requirement, but otherwise, your CV is not the most important. If you share our values and have the right qualities, we will provide you with support and opportunities to grow.
We believe that you:
- Are attracted to a varied job and enjoy meeting people in different situations.
- Are a creative person who dares to think independently and take responsibility.
- Enjoy working in a team and supporting your colleagues.
