Who are we?

The Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy Department at Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg Hospitals is a clinically cross-disciplinary department with its own research unit.

We take responsibility for our professional standard, e.g., with implementation of new guidelines and measurement methods, as well as journal clubs, supervision and workshops.

Our team in general neurology consists of a total of two occupational therapists and three physiotherapists. We have strong professional and social relationships, and we always help each other when needed.

We participate in several quality and development projects across the hospital and sectors as well as local working groups with the aim of improving and developing patient pathways in the neurological domain.

• Short rehabilitation courses for patients with neurological issues

We expect that you

• Find the neurological specialty exciting, and can handle working with seriously ill people and their relatives
• Are professionally well-founded, strong in clinical reasoning, and can communicate it orally as well as in writing
• Thrive in working independently, and have a good ability to prioritise and create overview
• Have good collaboration skills, and see it as natural to involve the interdisciplinary collaborators
• Have knowledge of working in a hospital, and thrive in an acute environment with many different patient pathways and collaborators

We offer

• Skilled and good colleagues who value professional sparring and knowledge sharing highly
• Thorough introduction to our exciting and varied everyday life with professional challenges and responsibilities, but where you never stand alone.
• Focus on research and development, where there is an opportunity to influence the physiotherapist’s work and engage in development work.
