to apply for the job
Right now, a lot is happening with us; we have a real baby boom in our workgroup! Several colleagues are becoming parents, and therefore we are now looking for another occupational therapist who wants to be part of our team and contribute with their expertise. Here you will work with a competent and inclusive group. With us, there are great opportunities for development. We think outside the box and invest in rehabilitation and quality for real. We care about you as an employee both in terms of development and making life fit together. If you want to work proactively with the patient in focus, you will thrive with us.
We operate from modern office premises at Eleonoragatan 18, about 1.5 kilometers from the Eskilstuna train and bus station. For those commuting, there is an opportunity to work during travel time. Welcome to us!
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
You will work in pairs with a physiotherapist at the patients' homes. The target group is individuals over 18 years old, although you will primarily meet the elderly, and we offer services at the primary care level. Together, you will find holistic solutions that strengthen the individual's independence in daily life. If you have a holistic view and see people's potential, as well as want to guide nursing assistants in a rehabilitative approach, you have come to the right place. You will work in a team in a geographical area and collaborate with physiotherapists, nurses, care managers, and colleagues in home care.
To allow you as a licensed professional to focus on what you do best, we have rehabilitation assistants who help you with administration, prescribed training, and assistive device assessments. We also have helpers who arrange cars and our assistive device storage.
QUALIFICATIONS
For us, personality and attitude are more important than experience as an occupational therapist. You have a genuine interest in people and their health. We are looking for someone who is attentive, flexible, self-assured, and easy to collaborate with other professions. As a person, you are responsible, structured, and can easily see the big picture.
Of course, you are a licensed occupational therapist or will complete your education this term. If you have worked in municipal care, you have a slight advantage. If not as an occupational therapist, then perhaps in another role or during your internship. You also need to have a B driver's license.
We conduct interviews continuously, so please submit your application today!
