The Parkvænget residential facility, East Street department, is seeking a contact person

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

At Parkvænget we believe that personal and social recovery is possible, through meaningful participation in everyday life on one’s own terms. We offer a wide range of recovery-supporting activities and meaningful employment, so that people’s well-being, coping and development are placed at the center.

We are looking for a contact person for 37 hours per week, with rotating day and evening shifts and work every third weekend. At Parkvænget there is flexibility and influence on your working hours, so you get a good balance between work and leisure.

Parkvænget is a long-term §108 and temporary §107 social psychiatric residential facility in Glostrup. Here we create a safe home for 58 adults with mental health challenges. We work from a rehabilitative approach with focus on the individual’s dreams and goals – here we look at people’s resources rather than limitations. We have 70 permanent staff and 4 leaders, who form part of a leadership team with the manager. As a contact person you report to the department head and the unit’s professional coordinator.

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