With us, the future of municipal healthcare is emerging, and together we create the best conditions. Here, district nurses, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists work together. We are responsible for healthcare and rehabilitation for the municipality's residents, with the main task of providing care and treatment to individuals who need support and cannot reach their healthcare center. We are in an exciting phase and in the midst of a transition to Close Care. The most important thing for us in our daily work is to always put the patient and their needs at the center.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a physiotherapist within municipal healthcare, you will assess, investigate, and evaluate function based on the individual's capabilities, goals, and current health status. The physiotherapeutic measures consist of function-preserving and rehabilitative interventions, including prescribing and fitting assistive devices. Prescription and guidance of nursing staff in rehabilitative practices are an important part of the work, including transfer training.

Your work and contributions should help patients maintain and develop the best possible activity and functional ability. As a physiotherapist, you have great opportunities for teamwork with occupational therapists, nurses, and other care and support staff. Physiotherapists and occupational therapists work in pairs within their respective areas of responsibility. Collaboration is an important part of promoting professional development and achieving a holistic view of care and rehabilitation.
