About the job
We are looking for you immediately or by arrangement as:
Care Specialist (FaBe) for the Seestern Shared Apartment with Increased Care Needs (80%)
We have been living here for many years, many of us almost our entire lives. In a pavilion in the middle of the Wagerenhof grounds, we, five residents, rely on the staff of our shared apartment to accompany us in everyday life. In our daily routine, we need clear structures through recurring processes and rituals, as well as close support on a relational level, which gives us security and stability. We can still react emotionally unexpectedly and need calm and understanding support through benevolent boundary-setting.
The Wagerenhof Foundation (affectionately called "Wagi") in Uster has been a permanent home for around 250 people with multiple cognitive impairments for over 100 years and offers supported workplaces for over 50 employees with support needs. We are a recognised, non-profit institution with a social mission. With a needs-oriented range of residential and care places as well as various day and leisure activities, we promote the quality of life, participation, and self-determination of our residents. The special features of Wagerenhof include its size and village character, which allows space for encounters. For employees with the most diverse backgrounds and expertise, the Wagerenhof Foundation is an attractive employer with versatile development opportunities. For trainees, Wagerenhof is a competent training partner.
