About the Job

Do you want an exciting and developing job where you make a difference for people every day?

In the municipality's rehabilitation organization, 33 employees work.

Organizationally, all physiotherapists/physical therapists and occupational therapists are employed in the same unit, which creates an opportunity for collegial supervision, experience, and knowledge exchange. As a new employee, one of our experienced physiotherapists/physical therapists will be your mentor.

Our goal is a rehabilitation service with good quality, where the individual's needs and conditions are at the center. We have a well-developed home rehabilitation service. To achieve this, all rehabilitation staff base their daily work on our various units within elderly care, dementia, and functional support. You will form the leadership team at the unit together with the unit manager, nurse, and occupational therapist.

Job Responsibilities

As a physiotherapist/physical therapist, you will work with assessments and interventions to increase and maintain the individual user's functional ability. You will be placed within the Home Support service. Your work will primarily be carried out within home care, but you will also perform work in a nursing home where you will also sit on the leadership team. If necessary, tasks may also be performed in other areas within the sector.

You prioritize and plan your day based on cases and the team's needs. You will guide, coach, and supervise care staff, and through your close collaboration, you will ensure that the individual receives the right support according to their needs. You create good relationships with users, their relatives, and other staff. Much of the work will take place in the individual user's home.

Who Are You?

You are a licensed physiotherapist/physical therapist.

You have the ability to create security and to meet and understand the user's needs. For you, it is natural to have a professional approach in your work, and you always put the user at the center. It is also important that you have the ability to plan and structure your work and have good collaboration skills.

Since documentation and communication are important in your work, you need to have good knowledge of Swedish as well as good computer skills. Transport between care recipients is done by bike or car. Therefore, you need to have a B driver's license and the ability to cycle.

We welcome applicants with experience in the field.

Great emphasis is placed on personal suitability.
