About Attendo Ekebyvägen in Eskilstuna

Attendo Ekebyvägen is a residential facility with 54 apartments for elderly individuals with cognitive illnesses. The facility focuses on outdoor activities and gardening, meaning we strive to use our pleasant garden for activities as much as possible.

We are now looking for an occupational therapist interested in a role involving close contact with residents, care staff, nurses, and physiotherapists. The opportunities to plan and follow up on measures implemented in the daily lives of the residents are significant, as the position is located within a single unit.

Job Description

Your role as an occupational therapist includes independently and collaboratively with care staff, physiotherapists, and nurses being responsible for assessments, interventions, and documentation.

The role also involves, to some extent, training and supervision of care staff.

You should enjoy working flexibly, in challenging environments, and in a team-based manner. The role includes a certain level of activity responsibility. Together with the operations manager and activity coordinator, you will plan both recurring weekly activities and occasional visits, such as musical entertainment, visits from horses from a nearby riding school, and seasonal activities like gingerbread baking, crayfish parties, Easter crafts, and gardening.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who are a licensed occupational therapist. As a person, you are responsible, independent, and humble, with the ability to prioritize and lead others. You enjoy supervising staff in healthcare matters and are motivated by organizing care in the best possible way together with the rest of the staff.

You have a genuine interest in the target group and are driven by the desire to create meaning in the daily lives of each individual.

For this role, it is important that you are interested, put the team before yourself, and have a desire to develop and contribute to development.
