JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Furthermore, we work to support patients in utilizing their own abilities to improve their life situation and achieve better health. The care pathway work and decision support for stepwise care within primary care and adult psychiatry form the basis for this work.

As a social worker with us, you will:

• work with care and treatment
• independently and in collaboration with patients and their relatives plan, implement, and evaluate psychosocial interventions at both individual and group levels.

With us, you will receive:

• a positive and developing workplace
• be part of a committed and secure workgroup where our strength lies in the good and close cooperation with all colleagues
• an independent role with the opportunity to influence and develop the operations
