In your role as Rehabilitation Coordinator, your duties include providing support and advice to individual patients and conducting assessments of their rehabilitation needs. You will be responsible for and participate in SIP (Joint Action Plans) and care plans, as well as meetings with employers. Your responsibilities include supporting physicians in creating clear rehabilitation plans. A key part of the role is to coordinate and collaborate both internally and externally, all to support the patient and contribute to preventing and shortening sick leave.

We are approximately 35 employees at the health centre who thrive together in an open working atmosphere. As a Rehabilitation Coordinator with us, you will work in close collaboration with the other staff members at the health centre.

The health centre features a doctor's office, specialist nurse clinics, a nurse's clinic, child health services, psychosocial competence, chiropody/podiatry, and a laboratory. We are also responsible for several nursing homes for the elderly.

To thrive and fit in with us, your personal qualities are important. We are looking for someone with a high degree of personal maturity.
