Vacant job

At our workplace, we work based on a county-wide mandate and operate in cross-professional teams. As a specialist unit, we are experts in understanding and managing the consequences of disabilities in everyday life. Most of the people we meet have neuropsychiatric disabilities. We work from a pedagogical treatment perspective where the patient's needs are in focus. Collaboration with other operations is an important part of the work. We also work on the development of pedagogical treatment methods.
