Do you want to be part of an organization making a difference for children and young people while having a developing and varied job? Then you should apply to us at Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Care (BUP) in Örebro.
Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Care (BUP) is tasked with providing specialized care to children and young people up to 18 years of age with psychiatric conditions. Care is always provided in close collaboration with the child's network to create the best possible conditions for treatment and support. We work based on evidence-based methods to ensure safe and effective specialist psychiatric care. The operation is extensive and is carried out by a competent team with different professional roles: social workers, psychologists, doctors, nurses, occupational therapists, special educators, care assistants, and medical care administrators. BUP's outpatient care is located in modern and pleasant premises in central Örebro. Here, there is a good working climate with an open atmosphere, where collaboration and engagement are in focus. BUP is currently in an exciting development phase that includes the development of, among other things, care processes.
With us, you get a secure start with an introduction and a mentor for support. You become part of an operation with high competence and colleagues with varying experience, which gives good opportunities for development in your role. We invest in competence development that aligns with the operation's needs. Other benefits include healthcare benefits, extra compensation during parental leave, the possibility of salary exchange, flextime agreements, and fitness benefits.
Job ResponsibilitiesThe social worker within BUP outpatient care has the task of adding specific psychosocial competence to the operation based on the social worker's area of knowledge. This means contributing a holistic perspective on the child's or young person's situation, where the interaction between the individual, family, and surrounding factors is taken into account. With their education, the social worker has special knowledge of social and psychosocial processes, family dynamics, living conditions, as well as risk and protective factors, which complements the perspectives of other professions.
The task includes using this competence in assessment, mapping, and follow-up, as well as designing and implementing interventions aimed primarily at guardians. The social worker also contributes knowledge about social legal issues, society's support measures, and collaboration with other actors, and ensures that the psychosocial perspective is integrated into the care. The work is characterized by a professional, ethical, and scientific approach with the best interests of the child in focus. Your duties include, among other things:
- Parenting support - individual and in groups
- Psychoeducational interventions
- Mapping, anamnesis, and assessments
- Suicide preventive work
- Care and collaboration coordination with internal and external actors
- Depending on competence and experience, other tasks within the professional role and the operation's mission may also be added.
As a social worker at BUP, you will meet patients both on-site at the clinic and digitally. You will work both independently and in interdisciplinary teams, as well as participate in joint conferences and professional meetings. We collaborate extensively with childcare, schools, social services, and other operations within health and medical care. The operation works actively to adapt and develop. We are looking for colleagues who want to be involved in developing and contributing to our operation.
QualificationsYou are a secure and stable person who inspires trust in all contexts. You work systematically and create order and clarity even when situations are complex. You have the ability to work independently within the framework of your professional role and are proactive and continue to seek solutions when things do not go as you planned. With your good cooperation skills, you actively contribute to a positive working climate and see the value in working together to achieve common goals. You are adaptable and find it easy to adjust to changes, while maintaining focus on quality and results. Your empathetic and sensitive side allows you to understand and address different needs and perspectives - both among colleagues and patients and their networks.
