Vacant job

Do you want to make a difference in people's daily lives? We are now looking for an engaged and experienced physiotherapist for the care and nursing home Sköndalsvillan. Here, you will have the opportunity to work with varied tasks in a stimulating and developing work environment where teamwork and high quality are in focus. We have somatic, dementia, short-term care, and geropsychiatric departments.

Together with the occupational therapist, you are responsible for meeting the needs for rehabilitation and assistive devices. You identify the residents' rehabilitation needs based on their activity and functional capacity. Interventions are then planned together with the resident and in collaboration with nurses and care staff. The purpose of your interventions is to preserve and maintain their abilities for as long as possible, as well as to give the residents a meaningful life. You supervise other employees in patient handling and the use of lifting aids, as well as physical activity and daily training. This is a chance for you to create a rehabilitation group that works optimally together with a new occupational therapist colleague.

You will also be part of our rehabilitation network, where you will collaborate and meet more colleagues within our different areas. You meet once a month to exchange experiences and discuss common questions.

This is a varied role where you are given the opportunity for freedom under responsibility. We expect you to work independently with a structured approach and have good problem-solving skills.

The position is a permanent full-time (100%) employment with a 6-month probation period.

You are a licensed physiotherapist. Experience from working in elderly care or geriatrics is meritorious. Furthermore, you need to have good knowledge of the Swedish language, both spoken and written, as well as good computer skills.

As a person, you are empathetic, flexible, and have good collaboration skills with the best interests of the operation in focus. We place great emphasis on your personal qualities.

We are a non-profit organization within support, care, nursing, education, and research. The fact that we do not distribute profits means that we can invest all resources in performing our mission as well as possible. Since 1905, operations within the Stora Sköndal Foundation have developed, changed, and improved. Some operations remain, others are completely new. But one thing does not change: We still work from the belief in the equal value of all people.

Every day we want to make life better for all the people we meet in our operations. Today we have approximately 1,100 employees, both monthly and hourly paid, who together work towards our vision – a society with a clear place for everyone. Our culture is permeated by our values – equality, care, and change.
