About the job

Do you want to help citizens move forward well right at the first contact?

In Favrskov Municipality, we are in the process of establishing the Entrance in the Authority for the Elderly. Here, a multidisciplinary team will receive citizens’ inquiries, make the initial assessment, and help the citizen as effectively as possible further already in the first contact.

We are looking for a new colleague for the Entrance, who has broad health-professional knowledge and particularly competencies within the assistive device area.

You will become part of a team of seven employees, where the starting point is that everyone should be able to help citizens with a wide range of inquiries. At the same time, there will be areas that require more specialized knowledge. Here you will have a special role within body-worn and refurbished assistive devices.

This means that you must both want to be a generalist and a specialist: You must be able to handle many different types of inquiries and at the same time be the colleague who contributes with assistive-device professional knowledge.

Your tasks

You will be part of the joint task-solving in the Entrance and should among other things

  • receive and map inquiries from citizens, relatives and collaboration partners
  • advise and guide on possibilities for help under the Social Services Act, the Health Act and the Elderly Act
  • handle and close smaller and uncomplicated inquiries
  • ensure that citizens with a need for further assessment or help are guided well further
  • referral to body-worn devices and refurbished assistive devices
  • contribute with special assistive-device knowledge and sparring for your colleagues
  • contribute to joint task-solving and development of a consistent practice in the Entrance.

We are looking for you who

  • have a relevant health-professional background and solid knowledge of the assistive device area
  • have experience with assessment or guidance regarding body-worn devices and refurbished assistive devices
  • are interested in working broadly with inquiries under the Social Services Act, Health Act and Elderly Act
  • are good at talking with people and can create structure in a conversation
  • can ask relevant questions and translate the citizen’s information into a professional assessment
  • can work independently and make decisions within your competence area
  • are curious and want to develop professionally in areas that lie outside your current specialty
  • share your knowledge and actively contribute to your colleagues’ competence development
  • thrive in a workday where the tasks and citizens’ inquiries vary
  • have good oral and written communication skills.

Therefore, why choose us

You will become part of a new function, where together we shall develop the way citizens meet the Elderly Authority. Our ambition is to create a fast, consistent, and coherent first contact, where the citizen feels heard and helped well forward.

We offer

  • a varied workday with many different citizen inquiries
  • opportunity to both use your specialized knowledge and develop new competencies
  • a close multidisciplinary collaboration in a team of seven employees
  • opportunity to influence the development of a completely new function in the Elderly Authority
  • professional sparring and knowledge sharing with colleagues with different competencies
  • a workplace where we work purposefully to make the path to the right help simple and coherent for the citizen.

Our ambition is that the citizen experiences that everyone has called correctly, and that we together find the best way forward.
