Make a difference. Every day.

Are you interested in a varied and developing work? Do you want to work at a workplace that continuously strives to achieve goals regarding accessibility, patient safety, equal care, and a good work environment? Then this might be the job for you!

The Cancer Rehabilitation Clinic is part of Skåne University Hospital (Sus) and provides rehabilitation for adult patients who are being treated/have been treated, cared for, or followed up medically. We strive to be a knowledge center for cancer rehabilitation and to contribute to development in the field through research, education, and supervision. Cancer rehabilitation aims to prevent and reduce the physical, psychological, social, and existential consequences of cancer and its treatment for the patient. The rehabilitation should, based on the patient's needs and wishes, provide support and conditions for the person to live a good life.

At our units in Lund and Malmö, doctors, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, social workers, lymph therapists, psychologists, and sexologists work in close collaboration. We offer treatment and rehabilitation individually and in groups. The national care programs for cancer rehabilitation and lymphedema are our starting point in our work.

Furthermore, we continuously work with structured improvement efforts to achieve goals regarding accessibility, patient safety, equal care, and a good work environment.
