• Medical-technical tasks such as measuring vital signs and administering medication according to prescription
• Additionally, careful observation and documentation in the electronic nursing system

Your work environment: Dementia care on a protected ward
The dementia ward works person-centered: the focus is on the human being with their biography, not the diagnosis. You therefore shape an everyday life with fixed rituals as well as familiar actions and milieu-therapeutic elements. Additionally, you recognize non-verbal signals, meet restlessness with calmness, and create moments of security and joy. This work requires patience and gives a lot back in return.
In short: As a FaGe in dementia care, you provide security and closeness. Dementia care in Oftringen is therefore considered by FaGe to be one of the most beautiful tasks ever.
The profession in detail: What does a Specialist in Healthcare EFZ do?
Without Specialists in Healthcare EFZ, nothing runs in daily nursing care – they are the backbone. They take over basic care, support personal hygiene and mobilization, and empathetically accompany people through the day. Furthermore, they perform medical-technical tasks: they measure vital signs, administer medication according to prescription, change simple bandages, and carefully document every observation in the nursing system.
The basis is the three-year vocational basic training with a Federal Diploma of Vocational Education and Training (EFZ). After that, many paths are open: the shortened HF training to become a registered nursing specialist, specialization in long-term care, or the role as a vocational trainer for apprentices. Therefore, according to the professional portal gesundheitsberufe.ch (https://www.gesundheitsberufe.ch), the FaGe qualification is considered one of the strongest foundations in the Swiss healthcare system.
In the Oftringen region, there is a high demand for FaGe EFZ in the field of dementia care, as the aging population requires specialized care. You benefit from excellent career opportunities and secure employment in established nursing facilities. iPersonal facilitates your entry into the profession through targeted placement with suitable employers and individual support during the application process.
