Occupational Therapist Home Rehabilitation Sala Municipality

Popis:

Do you thrive with variety in your work, problem-solving, and development tasks in everyday life? Are you passionate about helping people live meaningful days by creating opportunities for them to live as independently and actively as possible? Then this is the workplace for you! As we have had staff retire, we are now seeking an occupational therapist to join our team, primarily for work in ordinary housing/home healthcare. About Us The Rehabilitation Team at Sala Municipality is a wonderful and ambitious group consisting of occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and rehabilitation assistants, and we are responsible for rehabilitation services within the entire municipality's elderly care, as well as within the disability services area. We are a relatively large work group that is further divided into smaller work groups based on area of operation. What we all have in common is that with great dedication we work to ensure that the municipality's residents receive the best possible care based on their individual needs, goals, and circumstances. By sharing ideas, thoughts, and experiences with each other, we continually seek improvements and see opportunities in the challenges we face. You will be offered a positive and secure work environment with many engaged and knowledgeable colleagues! We actively work to ensure good and safe care for our patients according to the municipality's core values: Simple - Efficient - Citizen-friendly. Your Work Tasks As an occupational therapist in ordinary housing, you will work throughout the municipality, with our office premises at Sala Hospital as your base. You will be part of a team with a physiotherapist, nurse, rehabilitation assistant, and home care personnel, and will be responsible for occupational therapy assessments and interventions for the municipality's residents who need rehabilitation services in their own homes. You will also have close collaboration with the home care unit manager and coordinator, benefits officer, and external partners such as primary care centers and inpatient care. There are great opportunities for experience exchange and support when needed, as you will have daily contact with your colleagues in the rehabilitation team. The fact that we share premises with the region's rehabilitation personnel at the hospital also provides opportunities for knowledge exchange and facilitates collaboration in connection with discharge from hospital wards. Through a person-centered approach, you will plan and conduct occupational therapy assessments, interventions, and follow-ups based on the individual's personal goals and circumstances. You will have a natural and active role in the team around patients regarding preventive, function-preserving, and activity-promoting interventions. Together with the unit manager and other colleagues, you will also participate in the organization's quality and development work. In addition to patient-centered work, your tasks will also include supporting, mentoring, and to some extent training care personnel in, among other things, function- and activity-preserving approaches and assistive device handling. It may also be relevant to mentor students from the occupational therapy program at Uppsala University. What We Are Looking For We are seeking someone who is a licensed occupational therapist, preferably with a couple of years of experience in the profession. Previous experience in municipal elderly care or home rehabilitation is a merit, as is having prescription rights for assistive devices in Västmanland. If you have further training in, for example, geriatrics, dementia diseases, or other areas the employer finds suitable for the position, this is also a plus. You are engaged in your work, enjoy collaborating, have good interpersonal skills, and a strong ability to communicate well with patients, relatives, colleagues, and others. The work tasks are varied and of different characters, which requires that you are responsible, organized, flexible, and solution-focused. What You Will Receive We want you to feel good and be well with us, so Sala Municipality offers several benefits to you as an employee. We are very concerned that you receive a good and individually tailored introduction, with special emphasis on this if you are new to the profession. In addition to pleasant colleagues and varied work, you will receive: Flexible working hours Wellness allowance of 2,000 kr/year or exchange of wellness allowance for health examination Opportunity to work part-time remotely Opportunity for professional development during work hours Other Information B-level driver's license and experience driving a car are a requirement. You also need to be able to cycle. The position requires good computer skills and good ability to communicate in Swedish in speech and writing. Great emphasis is placed on personal suitability.
