Le Gouvernement du Grand-Duché du Luxembourg

Your tasks involve taking care of the elderly during their day-to-day activities but also supporting them in their free time. The residents are encouraged to spend their time on many activities that are organised by the multiprofessional team, either inside or outside.
Hence, our therapist team provides a lot of interesting activities for the residents like trips, creative workshops, gymnastics groups, memory trainings, gaming afternoons, bowling and many more. It is very important for us to create a lot of stimulating opportunities for our residents regarding their individual interests and needs.
You will be part of creating your monthly roster which guarantees that you are engaged in a variety of tasks and activities.
As your tasks include supporting the elderly during mealtime, setting the tables, serving food and cleaning, you will cooperate closely with the nursing team but not take over any nursing yourself. Thus, you will spend a lot of time with the residents during their day-to-day habits and you are likely to be confronted with all kinds of situations.

In the surrounding of a retirement home this also includes situations related to illness, rapid health deterioration and death. You will never have to deal with acute problems of the residents on your own, but you should know you may witness these situations at first hand.
Therefore, it is important for you, us as a team and the residents that you can deal with these circumstances mentally. You will cooperate with the psychosocial team where you can receive advice or help.
You will work five days a week, around 35 hours a week including a language course. There will be a weekend, this means two consecutive days off every week. You also get two vacation days per month which you can accumulate. In addition, National Holidays are free days for you as well. The nursing home is in the surroundings of the train station and the journey to
Innsbruck by bus takes roughly 20 minutes. Considering that, you will get a public transport ticket that allows you to discover beautiful Tyrol. Since you will spend a lot of time in the Austrian society, it is a good opportunity for you to get to know better the Tyrolean culture.
