Recently, we have expanded our operations with a Safe Homecoming team that you may have the opportunity to participate in. We also have an occupational therapist who has the MAR assignment.

We are a group with a lot of commitment, and together we create a creative workplace. There are great opportunities for knowledge exchange and collegial support when needed, as you have daily contact with colleagues in the rehab team. Working with us offers a wide variety of tasks.

Your starting point is from central Torsby where the Rehab Unit has its offices. Your tasks are very diverse and based on personal responsibility with planning and prioritization. You will meet patients both in their regular homes and in SÄBO/LSS. The work includes assessments of patients' mobility, training and treatment, as well as prescribing assistive devices. You will have close collaboration with occupational therapists and other rehab staff, area managers, nurses, and care personnel. You should support and stimulate the elderly and utilize their own resources in daily life. Your tasks include mentoring care staff and students in rehabilitative and health-promoting methods, fall prevention, handling of assistive devices, and training.

We provide you with a structured introduction when you start with an assigned mentor. All to ensure you have a good start and feel comfortable with us.
