Become a social- or health-care professional at the residential facility Boserupvej in Roskilde - a professionally strong residential facility with a focus on relationships and recovery

Are you eager to become part of a residential facility with high professional standards, a strong sense of community, and a clear focus on residents' everyday lives? Then apply to Boserupvej – a residential facility under Social Psychiatry in the City of Copenhagen.

Boserupvej is in development, and in connection with a staffing increase we are looking for new colleagues. We are seeking social- or health-care professionals, e.g., social- and health assistant, pedagogue, occupational therapist, psychomotor therapist, nurse, or another relevant professional profile.

At Boserupvej you will become part of a long-term social-psychiatric residential facility under § 108. We have three areas, each housing 30 residents who live in their own apartments with access to common living areas.

The residents are adults with mental vulnerability – some also with substance use issues. We work recovery- and rehabilitation-oriented and start from the principle that the resident is an actor and expert in their own life. This means that the relationship, presence, and good conversation are an important part of the work.

In each area we are 14 full-time staff members, plus 9 permanent weekend temporary workers who work every third weekend. We work closely together in a mature and experienced colleague group. We bring different professional backgrounds and experiences, but what we have in common is that we want to create good and meaningful everyday lives for the residents.

As Flemming, who works as a contact person at Boserupvej, says: “I have found some fantastic colleagues of all ages and backgrounds, and I have good managers who treat me properly.”

At Boserupvej you will have the opportunity to use your professional skills close to the residents. Everyday life is varied, and the tasks range from relationship work and conversations to practical support at home, personal care, activities, documentation, and health-professional tasks.

Your role

You will become part of an interdisciplinary team consisting of pedagogy, social, and health-care professionals.

As a contact person you establish a close relationship with the residents for whom you are the contact person and help create structure, safety and content in daily life. You must be able to work independently, but also actively use your colleagues for sparring and collaboration.

Among your tasks will be

• contact-person tasks for two to three residents
• supportive conversations and daily contact with the residents
• support for structure, activities and social communities
• recovery-oriented rehabilitation
• personal care and health-care tasks depending on your professional background – training offered
• medication management – training offered
• documentation and follow-up on residents' goals and development
• close collaboration with colleagues and other partners

Experience is valued but not essential. The most important thing for us is that you are passionate about working with people with mental vulnerability/double diagnoses and want to be a stable and professional presence in their daily lives.

At Boserupvej we work with Low Arousal 2 (LA2)

• All staff are trained in the LA2 method
• We have several LA2-certified staff and managers
• We also work with psychosocial rehabilitation, their own recovery process and NADA

Our professional approach is based on the residents' perspective. We work with relationships and safety as a foundation and with targeted documentation so that we can follow development together and adjust the effort as needed.

We are looking for someone who

• has a relevant social- or health-care education (e.g., SOSU assistant, pedagogue, social pedagogue, nurse, occupational therapist, psychomotor therapist, etc.)
• wants to work within social psychiatry – experience from the social sector is an advantage but not a requirement
• can work independently and at the same time actively participate in an interdisciplinary community
• is curious, reflective and can see multiple perspectives in the work
• meets residents with respect, calm and courtesy
• can create overview and follow up on agreements and tasks
• sees documentation as a natural part of the professional work

We offer

• a meaningful job close to the residents in a safe and professionally strong community
• thorough introduction and ongoing supervision
• courses and competence development
• good opportunities to develop your professional skills and bring your competences into play
• a workplace with diverse professional backgrounds, experiences and perspectives
• opportunity after two years of relevant experience to take a diploma module in rehabilitation in collaboration with the City of Copenhagen
