Skills supply through shading

The people in today's organizations need to deliver 125% of the current with the equivalent of 75% of the human resources currently available. This is a difficult equation to put together if you as an organization do not start working in a different way. Within Linköping municipality, the biggest problem is to secure the right staff to be able to offer the residents of the municipality good and service-oriented welfare for their target group. As mentioned above, this means that new methods and working methods need to be developed and tested, which is the purpose of this project. Linköping municipality and primarily the service provider in the health and social care sector Leanlink wants to find new and challenging methods and models to secure the future competence supply and find an inter-municipal collaboration that is sustainable over time. Through collaboration between administrations in the municipal sector, the cross-sectoral societal challenges such as skills provision and lifelong learning can facilitate and with a focus on facilitating the establishment of the labour market for those individuals who are outside the labour market, it also leads to social sustainability. Linköping Municipality wants to investigate which model for developed strategic collaboration between the social welfare administration, labour market and integration administration and the municipal provider is required to enable a professional division of services in home care and the introduction of new professional roles and an increased number of labour market places. The project has identified three main causes that need to be addressed through this project: The recent development of close care has meant that increasingly complex health and medical care is imposed on municipalities and thus the role of assistant nurses has become increasingly focused on advanced care, which means that care as a whole needs to be supplemented with other professions in order for there to be any opportunity to manage the supply of skills. - The tasks have such a broad focus that the profession is allowed to work with tasks for which they are overqualified. Too few supervisors who can introduce individuals to work via work placements. The expected result of the project is primarily to produce a plan for collaboration within the development area that the organization has identified. In addition, the project will develop a model that relates to structures of new methods and working methods that have bearing on the problem formulation and that find the solution in collaboration with the actors involved. The project will be based on seven objectives: 1. The project will find out and document the organisational and/or structural capacity or skills needs or shortcomings related to the collaboration between the social administration/labour market and integration administration as well as the municipal provider in order to achieve the goal of new professional roles that perform services and an increased number of labour market places. 2. 8-16 individuals from the Integration and Labour Market Administration shall receive a labour market employment with a clear goal of obtaining a job as a service assistant. 3. The project will test the competence staircase on a smaller scale before a wide-ranging and upscaling project in Linköping municipality. 4. Develop an operational analysis that focuses on how the division of professions should look like between the new professional role that performs services and those that today perform home care, i.e. assistant nurses and nursing assistants. 5. Investigate and define which new profession facilitates the challenges of the coming years regarding competence provision in healthcare and what competence this new profession needs. 6. The project will start up a shadowing team consisting of job market places that follow an existing home care team with the goal of documenting experiences and lessons learned. 7. The project will work to find a model that is sustainable over time and sustainable throughout Linköping municipality and that is based on the basics of skills provision, lifelong learning and social sustainability. Based on today's problems where there is a need for labour in the care sector while there is labour outside the labour market, it is important that organizations in the public sector find a model to solve this gap. Through this project, Linköping Municipality will work hypothetically and iteratively by testing and evaluating models by using working methods in practical activities that are evaluated at frequent intervals. Through these lessons, a structure is built in a model that aims to build on in a larger and more comprehensive project in the future.
