Do you want to help develop the future of habilitation services?

"Habilitation, Vision and Assistive Devices" is a county-wide operation offering cross-professional and specialized interventions and assistive devices for children, young people, and adults with long-term disabilities.

Your workplace

At the Adult Habilitation unit, we work with individuals over the age of 18 who have intellectual disabilities, autism, significant mobility impairments, or acquired brain injuries requiring long-term rehabilitation. The Adult Habilitation unit offers interventions for adults, their relatives, and other network members. Based on need, we collaborate with other healthcare providers, the municipality, and other societal actors.

Together, we contribute to a positive development for the patient in the form of:

• Optimal function and activity.
• Physical and mental well-being.
• Participation in societal life and equal living conditions.

Here, you will find driven and engaged colleagues.

We have a systematic work environment approach and place great emphasis on the introduction and mentoring of new employees. We also conduct structured development work focusing on evidence-based interventions individually and in groups, as well as the provision of e-services. As a health-promoting workplace, we offer both joint wellness activities and a wellness hour.

Together, we are developing the future of habilitation!

Your responsibilities

As an occupational therapist, you are a key competence in the team surrounding the patient, working with the assessment and treatment of adults with disabilities. We collaborate both within and outside the operation, so your ability to work collaboratively is important.

It is important that you can work both independently and with others, as the work performed here is highly varied depending on our patients' needs. Equally important is your interest in development work, as we are in the midst of intensive development, both of our own operations and within the field of habilitation knowledge. You will work in teams that primarily meet people with intellectual disabilities and autism.

Your skills and competencies

We are looking for you who are a licensed occupational therapist. Experience and competence within the target groups of habilitation are meritorious, as is experience working within habilitation or related operations.

You always have the patient in focus and are responsible and motivated in your work. As a colleague, you are engaged and positive, contributing to good collaboration, a pleasant work environment, and good relationships. You are also independent, flexible, and adaptable to different situations.

Since we are keen to find the right person for the position, we will place great importance on personal suitability. A driver's license is desirable but not a requirement.
