Vacant job

Are you a physiotherapist looking to make a positive difference for children, young people, and adults with disabilities? Then you might be our new colleague at the Habilitation Centre in Karlshamn!

About Us

The Habilitation Centre provides services to individuals with congenital or early-acquired disabilities, such as intellectual disabilities, autism, and extensive motor impairments. We provide evidence-based care based on current research and proven experience. The Habilitation Centre is represented with a department in Karlshamn and one in Karlskrona, but we operate as a unified entity with close collaboration across the county. We have approximately 50 employees, of whom 7 are physiotherapists.

For us, it is important to have a person-centered and health-promoting approach where we work to create value for the patient. Therefore, we actively work with accessibility and good customer service. At our workplace, you will work in an organization that is in a learning process, where you have the opportunity to influence development.

As a new physiotherapist in our organization, you will receive a thorough introduction and professional supervision from experienced colleagues. Within the framework of your employment, there is also the opportunity to participate in development and change work. We also offer team supervision, regular professional meetings, wellness benefits, and free access to the gym.

About the Job

We offer meaningful work with complex and developmental patient cases. We work in interdisciplinary teams, and you will work both independently and together with competent professional and team colleagues. You will have the opportunity to work from a life perspective and provide support for our patients and their networks.

The daily work is varied. Tasks include neurological, motor, and orthopedic assessments. You will also participate in investigative work, counseling, support measures, and supervision for families and networks, as well as the fitting and follow-up of certain assistive devices. You will also perform CPUP measurements and review 24-hour positioning. The work is flexible, and you plan your calendar to a large extent yourself. The work takes place in the Habilitation Centre's facilities but also in the patient's immediate environment, such as school, home, and day activities. There is an opportunity to perform some administrative tasks remotely by agreement. Regular working hours are weekdays 8:00-16:30, and a flexible agreement applies.

About You

You are a licensed physiotherapist. We welcome newly graduated colleagues. You base your work on the patient's needs and involve the patient and their network in the work. You work effectively with others and see teamwork as an asset to your profession.

You naturally take personal responsibility for your work, have the ability to prioritize tasks, and can quickly adapt to changed conditions. You plan your calendar independently based on a holistic view of the operations and in collaboration with colleagues.

You also have an interest in creating new ways of working together with others and see digital solutions as natural opportunities in your work.

To thrive and succeed in the job with us, you also need to be unpretentious both in absorbing knowledge and experience and in sharing your knowledge and experiences with colleagues.
