Welcome to the Prevention Unit!

We are an organization tasked with driving and developing preventive and health-promoting work within the main mission of Health.

The team includes business developers, health developers, health educators, activity coordinators, activity hosts, relatives' consultants, volunteer coordinators, dietitians, IT guides, and a handyman service, all located at our major meeting places.

On July 1, 2025, a new Social Services Act came into effect, meaning the Prevention Unit is now engaged in a joint development process to better meet the needs identified among adults and the elderly. Together, we work to offer support through outreach activities, meeting places, and volunteer work, with interventions aimed at improving physical, mental, and social health.

You have great opportunities to shape the role and participate in the development work together with your colleagues.

Our common goal is to create a safe and meaningful environment where individuals receive the support they need, through active participation in activities and by building social networks.
