Our Job Offer

We currently have a longer temporary position available as one of our employees will be on parental leave.

We are looking for someone interested in driving and developing the operations within the Orthopedics area. You will work in both inpatient and outpatient care. In this role, you will work independently with the assessment and treatment of orthopedic patients.

In inpatient care, you will meet patients after acute injuries as well as patients who have undergone elective surgery. You will collaborate closely with the entire team on the ward; doctors, occupational therapists, nurses, and nursing assistants. You will also work closely with experienced physiotherapists. The inpatient care is located in state-of-the-art facilities in the hospital's brand-new building.

In outpatient care, you will meet patients who have undergone surgery after an acute injury or patients who have undergone elective surgery. Outpatient patients will either come to the Orthopedic Clinic or to our Physiotherapy Clinic. Many of our patients have undergone some form of shoulder surgery.

We are constantly working to develop both our profession and our working methods at the hospital, and we are therefore looking for someone who wants to be part of this important work.

You will receive a long introduction and you will have many wonderful and competent colleagues to ask for advice. We also have several specialists in Orthopedic Physiotherapy who help us work systematically with improvement efforts.

With us, there are good opportunities to develop as a physiotherapist!
