Physiotherapist to the Social Services Administration

The mission of the Social Services Administration is to provide care, support, and treatment to elderly individuals, people with disabilities, and those in need of home healthcare. The administration has approximately 1700 permanent employees and has a turnover of over one billion kronor. The Social Services Administration is divided into four operational areas: ordinary housing, special housing, support and services for disabilities, and the health and medical care department. The administration also includes the authority unit and a staff with important support functions such as HR, finance, and IT. We are proud of our employees and work according to our vision: “Hässleholm Municipality offers Sweden's best care and support provided by the proudest employees.”

About us

Within the Social Services Administration, we provide care, support, and assistance to individuals who are elderly, have a disability, or need home healthcare. We also offer health-promoting initiatives and support to those who care for and support a relative. Our goal is for those who need care and support in their daily lives to be able to live as independently as possible.

The health and medical care department is responsible for services within home healthcare and rehabilitation. The services are performed by nurses, nursing assistants, rehabilitation assistants, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists, who also delegate to care staff within other operational areas based on their profession.

Hässleholm Municipality is an important hub in Sweden. Here, people meet to live, experience, work, and learn in a municipality characterized by curiosity and development. With us, you will have a meaningful and varied job with room to influence and take responsibility. We believe in your ability to create good service for those we are here for. Together, we make each other better!

Welcome to become one of us!
