JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Welcome to a workplace that makes a difference!

The outpatient care in the children and youth department consists of two family treatment units, family treatment for children (0-10 years) and treatment for youth (11-20 years). Both units work from a systemic and family-oriented perspective where we have conversations with children, young people, and parents. Within outpatient care, there is also an MST team, a high-risk team, and a crisis center for domestic violence.

We offer professional and personal development and a workplace with good cohesion with an inclusive and open work climate. The administration collaborates with Halmstad University’s competence platform for continuous learning where you have the opportunity to contribute your experience and knowledge for the social work education at Halmstad University. The unit offers regular supervision through external supervisors and employees work structured and actively with Feedback Informed Treatment (FIT) for increased dialogue with those we work with based on the treatment assignment. Throughout the department, we work with Signs of Safety and MI.

As two of our previous employees have moved on to other positions, we are now looking for 2 social advisors for family treatment for children. We are looking for you who are a trained social worker and have experience in psychosocial treatment work. In addition, we wish that you have an easy time with flexibility and a positive outlook towards work. We also desire employees with great commitment who are passionate about meeting people from different backgrounds and life experiences. You need to be able to organize and structure different treatment situations both independently and in a team. You also need to be able to see families' situations from a holistic perspective where all areas of life in a family's life matter. If necessary, we work with other important people in the family and its network as well as other professionals around the child, e.g., preschool, school, and child and adolescent psychiatry.

To thrive in the role of social advisor with us, you need to be secure in yourself and have a high degree of flexibility and collaboration skills. We work both at our families' homes and in our treatment facilities located in central Halmstad.

Recruitment, selection, and interviews are ongoing during the recruitment process.
