Your Workplace

The habilitation and assistive technology service is a cross-regional operation that offers interdisciplinary and specialized interventions and assistive devices for children, adolescents, and adults with long-term disabilities.

In adult habilitation, we work with individuals over 18 years of age with intellectual disabilities, autism, significant mobility impairments, and acquired brain injuries with long-term rehabilitation needs. Adult habilitation provides services to adults, their relatives, and other networks. Based on needs, we collaborate with other entities within healthcare, municipalities, and other community actors.

Together, we contribute to a positive development for the patient in the form of:

• Optimal function and activity.
• Physical and mental well-being.
• Participation in community life and equal living conditions.

With us, you will have driven and dedicated colleagues. We have a systematic work environment effort and place great focus on the introduction and mentorship of new employees. We also conduct structured development work focusing on evidence-based interventions individually and in groups, along with an expanded range of e-services. As a health-promoting workplace, we have both joint wellness activities and wellness hours.

Together, we are developing the habilitation of the future!

Your Responsibilities

As an occupational therapist, you are an important competence in the team around the patient, working with assessment and treatment of adults with disabilities. We collaborate both within and outside the organization, so your ability to cooperate is essential. It is important that you can work both independently and together with others, as the work performed with us varies greatly depending on our patients' needs. Equally important is your interest in development work, as we are in an intensive development phase, both of our own operations and within the field of habilitation knowledge. You will work in teams that primarily meet individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism.

Your Skills/Competencies

We are looking for a licensed occupational therapist. Experience and competence within the target groups of habilitation is meritorious, as is experience working in habilitation or related fields. A driver's license is desirable.

You always put the patient in focus and are responsible and motivated in your work. As a colleague, you are engaged and positive and contribute to good collaboration and a pleasant work environment. Since we are keen to find the right person for the position, we will place great emphasis on personal suitability.
