JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

We are looking for you who are an occupational therapist and want to work as a rehabilitation coordinator. With us, you contribute to taking good care of others and helping people feel better.

As an occupational therapist, you contribute your specific expertise to increase the individual's independence and participation in daily activities. The tasks are varied and consist of both independent and team work, where the foundation of the work is the assessment of abilities and skills in activities regardless of age. You are often the first point of contact for assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of symptoms in the forearm/hand. Additionally, you work on assessing cognitive abilities, activity patterns, and balance in daily life, testing and prescribing assistive devices, and evaluating ADL abilities.

In this position, you will primarily work as a rehabilitation coordinator. Here, you are the patient's individual support in the sick leave process, where part of the work is to map the patient's needs, conditions, and personal goals. The mapping can then form the basis for the rehabilitation plan created together with the referring physician. Here, you also include the patient's own wishes in the plan. Another task is to collaborate with other authorities. As a rehabilitation coordinator, you are the health unit's contact person for municipalities, employers, the Social Insurance Agency, and the Employment Service in sick leave matters. Additionally, you are responsible for internal coordination. This may involve keeping track of when sick leaves expire during doctors' absences or contacting other parts of the healthcare system that are also relevant for the patient. Statistics and analysis of sick leave patterns are also part of the internal coordination.

With us, you will regularly be offered further education to develop in your professional role, and you will work interdisciplinary closely with your colleagues. We who work here today value our excellent collaboration that creates a good work environment and patient-safe care. We offer you a developing and stimulating workplace characterized by personal responsibility, participation, and teamwork.

QUALIFICATIONS

We welcome you who are a licensed occupational therapist with permission to practice within Swedish healthcare. Language skills in Swedish at least corresponding to level C1 according to the Council of Europe’s scale are a requirement.

As a person, you thrive in working patient-focused with a holistic view and a care chain perspective. You have the ability to work independently and under your own responsibility while collaborating well in a team. Additionally, you have good pedagogical skills and initiative. We place great importance on personal suitability.

In this recruitment, we apply ongoing selection. Warm welcome with your application!
