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

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

Boserupvej is developing, and in connection with a staffing increase we are looking for new colleagues. We are seeking social- or health-professional staff, e.g., social and health care assistant, educator, 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 shared common areas.

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

In each area we have 14 full-time employees plus 9 permanent weekend substitutes who work every third weekend. We collaborate closely in a mature and experienced colleague group. We bring different professional backgrounds and experiences, but what unites us is a desire to create good and meaningful everyday lives for the residents.

As Flemming, who works as the contact person at Boserupvej, says: “I have gained 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 closely with the residents. Everyday life is varied, and tasks range from relationship work and conversations to practical support in the home, personal care, activities, documentation and health-related tasks.

Your role

You will become part of a multidisciplinary team consisting of educator-, social-, and health-care professionals.

As a contact person you will establish a close relationship with the residents you are responsible for 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 duties 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 decisive. The most important 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, own recovery process and NADA

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

We are looking for you who

• have a relevant social- or health-professional education (e.g., SOSU assistant, educator, social educator, nurse, occupational therapist, psychomotor therapist, etc.)
• are keen 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 a multidisciplinary community
• are curious, reflective and can see multiple perspectives in the work
• meet the residents with respect, calm and decency
• can create overview and follow up on agreements and tasks
• see documentation as a natural part of the professional effort

We offer

• a meaningful job close to the residents in a safe and professionally strong community
• thorough introduction and ongoing supervision
• courses and professional development
• good opportunities to develop your professional skills and apply your competencies
• an workplace with different professional backgrounds, experiences and perspectives
• the possibility after two years of relevant experience to take a diploma module in rehabilitation in collaboration with the City of Copenhagen

Employment conditions

Salary and employment conditions according to the applicable collective agreement and within the framework of local pay formation.
