Health professional coordinator for Jacob Michaelsens Minde – a 24-hour residential facility for mentally vulnerable children and young people in Skodsborg

Do you want to make a difference for vulnerable children and young people with complex issues? Are you passionate about combining health care expertise, multidisciplinary collaboration and relational work – and do you have a nursing background with a focus on psychiatry and young people with substance abuse and criminality?

Then you might be our new health care coordinator at the 24/7 facility Jacob Michaelsens Minde.

You will become a central key person

As a health care coordinator you will be responsible for ensuring quality, structure and coherence in the health care interventions around the young people – in close collaboration with contact pedagogues, department heads and external partners.

You will have a versatile and meaningful daily life, where you both have coordinating, administrative and practical tasks – and where you come close to the young people and their development. In addition, there is an opportunity for professional sparring with nurses from other children and youth homes in the Center for Children and Youth.

Your new workplace
