The Parkvænget residential facility, East Department, St. seeks a contact person

Are you educated as a social and health care assistant, pedagogue, nurse or occupational therapist and would you like to be part of a professionally skilled team with 8 colleagues with different professional backgrounds, where interdisciplinarity and warmth go hand in hand, then you might be the contact person we are looking for?

We work from a rehabilitative approach with a focus on each person’s dreams and goals – we look at people’s resources rather than limitations. We have 70 permanent staff and 4 leaders who form a leadership team with the manager. As a contact person you report to the department head and the unit’s professional coordinator.

Your closest colleagues are the staff on your unit – but you should expect all 9 teams to work closely around the core task. Therefore you are employed at Parkvænget and it is expected that you can work on all 4 units, primarily attached to a unit with contact residents.
