Here, you will find security, career opportunities, a forward-looking attitude, and a strong sense of community.

About our open position

You will have the opportunity to work with new methods within inpatient and outpatient care, where you, together with other professions, make the most difference for the patient.

We want to make a difference in people's lives, offering rehabilitation at the highest level while giving you the opportunity to develop yourself and your professional competence.

Collaboration and communication with other levels of care is a large part of our work when discharging patients from the hospital in a safe manner.

We are many experienced colleagues who enjoy working together and support each other in daily work, but we need more.

We offer you:

• Introduction with a buddy who mentors you in your work
• Competence development through internal and external training as well as observation
• Opportunity to deepen your knowledge at university or college level
• Teamwork together with other professions
• A good working climate in functional premises

About us

The mission of rehabilitation medicine, occupational therapy, and physiotherapy is to provide occupational therapy to patients within somatic outpatient and inpatient care. This means working in our rehabilitation medicine teams where we, together with other professions, coordinate our efforts. Our specialist teams work with brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and other complex diagnoses where teamwork is crucial.

At the unit, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and rehabilitation assistants work together around the patient.

Your profile

We are looking for you who are a licensed occupational therapist with experience from both specialist care and other areas. Experience from primary care or home healthcare is meritorious.

Since the work is characterized by collaboration and variation, high demands are placed on good cooperation skills, flexibility, holistic view, and responsibility, as well as the ability to work independently. You will be responsible for ensuring the patient receives good rehabilitation during the treatment period.

Curiosity and a willingness to learn new things are welcome. You care about the patient, are driven to find solutions, and to develop both healthcare, our methods, and yourself.

We will place great emphasis on personal suitability.
