Social work professional wanted for Den Blå Gård, Naturgruppen and Botilbuddet Arendalsvej

Would you like to help create meaningful everyday lives for citizens with special needs through community, development and activities in nature?

We are seeking an engaged and relationship-oriented social professional for a permanent position of 37 hours per week, where you will be part of both Den Blå Gård, Naturgruppen and participate in the work at Botilbuddet Arendalsvej every 3rd weekend.

The position provides a unique opportunity to work across services and support citizens' development, well-being and participation in everyday life.

About the position

Your primary working time will be attached to Den Blå Gård, Naturgruppen, where you together with colleagues and citizens create meaningful activities with a basis in nature, community and the individual citizen's resources.

Nature Group focuses on activities in and around nature, where physical activity (walking), community and meaningful experiences are central. The activities are planned based on the citizens' individual needs and resources and largely include elements of sensory processing and sensory stimulation. The sounds, smells, materials and movement of nature are actively used to create well-being, calm, development and meaningful experiences for the individual citizen.

In Naturgruppen the target group is citizens with significant and lasting impairment of cognitive function. The citizens require support and guidance in all daily tasks, from toilet visits and personal care to meals and participation in activities. Therefore it is expected that you as an employee are patient, present and adaptable, as days do not always unfold as planned.

It is an advantage, but not a requirement, that you have experience with or interest in autism understanding, structure pedagogy, KRAP and neuro-pedagogy. In addition, we would like you to have an interest in music and be able to use this as part of interaction and activities with the citizens.

In addition, you will participate in the pedagogical work at Botilbuddet Arendalsvej every 3rd weekend, where the focus is on supporting the citizens' independence, well-being and a good everyday life.

You will become part of a professionally strong environment where we place a high value on collaboration, reflection and development.
