Need (Why) Within the care sector there is a huge need for
further personnel capacity and at the same time we can identify a
large amount of immigrants that are unemployed. Further to that we
have an increasing group of elderly people with various ethnical
backgrounds, who needs and prefers nursing aid by professionals with
knowledge of different languages.
Diversity (What) The working places should reflect the society
in all its respects. Consequently the working places should be
permeated and reflected by diversity. The municipality of Linköping
strives to fulfil this goal with regard to gender/equality, age and
ethnical background.
Trainee (How) During the programme the trainees will be trained
within the field of care. They will be equipped with tools that will
enable them to perform as qualified paramedics or assistant
home-helpers. Due to both mentorship and networking their professional
knowledge will increase as well as their skills in languages.
Integration (Outcome) We believe that exchange of experiences,
through integration, gives a more profound understanding of different
ethnical backgrounds. One way to increase and deepen the integration
is to implement a far-reaching trainee programme that will result in a
greater amount if immigrants at our working places. We will gain in
several aspects due to our trainee programme. For one thing we will
increase the number of staff and on the other hand the trainees will
increase their general linguistics skills. Further to that we will be
able to provide higher higher quality services.
