• Support with personal hygiene, dressing, eating, and mobilization
• 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 working environment: Night watch in the nursing home

This position is advertised as a night watch. At night, you carry special responsibility: for example, you carry out control rounds, monitor the sleep and condition of the residents, and react calmly to emergencies. Additionally, you prepare the medication for the morning and pass on your observations in a structured manner to the day team. Night supplements and quieter working phases make this model attractive to many professionals.

In short: As a FaGe in the night watch, you work independently and calmly. Many FaGe therefore value the night watch in Thun as a model that fits well with family or further education.

The profession in detail: What does a Healthcare Professional EFZ do?

Healthcare Professionals EFZ are the backbone of everyday nursing care. They take over, for example, basic care, support with personal hygiene and mobilization, and accompany people empathetically 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. The FaGe qualification is therefore considered by the professional portal gesundheitsberufe.ch (https://www.gesundheitsberufe.ch) as one of the strongest foundations in the Swiss healthcare system.

The demand for healthcare professionals in shift work remains high in Thun, especially for night shifts with an 80-100% workload. med-iPersonal supports you through comprehensive placement with established employers in the region and accompanies you during your entry with administrative support and professional orientation.
