Introduction and supervision

You will receive an introduction before you start working independently, and there are always team leaders during the day at the operation's premises who can provide you with supervision and support while you work.

To work in the operation, you should:

-have an interest in working with people who have various dementia illnesses or mental health issues

-be self-sufficient, persistent, patient, stress-resistant, proactive, and creative in your work approach. It is important that you are very social and find it easy to meet and communicate with people you do not know

-handle stress and be able to plan and structure your work

Please note that we ultimately place great importance on personal suitability such as knowledge, interest, initiative ability, communication/approach, and personality characteristics.

Job duties

The decision includes, among other things, taking care of general hygiene and intimate hygiene, showering, cooking, social interaction, cleaning, laundry, errands, accompanying to various facilities, and walks. We work a lot with motivation to be able to perform the interventions and use various work methods as aids.

We have team leaders and administrators staffing the office during the day, to whom you can turn in your daily work.

Who we are

Stockholm Dementia and Special Team is a home care company that performs interventions in the client's own home. The operation also provides companion service, relief service, and housing support.

We have clients in 8 different districts, and you start and end your work shift from Södermalm where we have our premises. You get around to clients via public transport or walking (the operation has no cars). An SL card is a requirement to hold for this position.
