JOB DESCRIPTION

We are looking for a licensed occupational therapist with interest and commitment to work within municipal health and medical care. You are driven by creating good conditions for the patient's independence, and your assignment includes planning, coordinating, and implementing occupational therapy interventions based on the patient's individual needs. You will work with activity assessments and rehabilitative measures in close dialogue with the patient and in collaboration with relevant staff. The position also includes assessment, trial, and prescription of medical technical aids, as well as providing support, guidance, and training to nursing staff.
