About the job
At the Mathilde Escher Foundation, we work for a world where people with a muscle disease live self-determined and autonomous lives. Our services in the areas of education, housing, therapy, leisure activities, and work are committed to this goal. Professionally skilled, independently acting, creative employees are our most important resource.
We are looking for a Nursing Specialist HF / FH for one of our adult residential groups by arrangement.
The residents are physically severely restricted. This does not prevent them from learning, working, celebrating, or travelling on holiday. And for that, they need you. As an employee, you enable them to live their daily lives and their dreams.
What you can expect:
- A varied, meaningful, and demanding job with a lot of personal responsibility, competence, and scope for design
- A committed team in a very pleasant and appreciative working atmosphere
- Good social benefits and salary based on cantonal guidelines
- Internal and external training and further education opportunities
- Active involvement in work schedules, only day shifts, and three additional weeks of holiday
- Discounts on sports and ZVV subscriptions
What you bring:
- Completed training as a nursing specialist HF/FH (with SRK recognition for foreign diplomas)
- Commitment and enthusiasm for the care and support of young adults
- Mental resilience, teamwork skills, and motivation for responsible and independent work
- Patience, social competence, and flexibility
- Practical experience with IT-supported nursing documentation
Your core tasks:
- Function as a nursing specialist with service responsibility during day shifts
- Collaboration in the foundation's nursing team (treatment care, training of non-specialist staff, cooperation with the foundation doctor)
- Basic and treatment care of the residents
- Ensuring care quality by implementing the respective standards and guidelines
- Case management for one to two residents
- Accompanying and supporting residents in daily life and leisure
- Active participation in the further development of the residential group
- Practical instruction of interns and trainees
