Two occupational therapists sought for the Neurological Team and the Geriatric Team

Do you want to help create meaningful rehabilitation pathways close to the citizen's daily life? And do you thrive in a strong professional community where interdisciplinary collaboration, development and high quality go hand in hand?

The Outpatient Training in Fredensborg Municipality is seeking two occupational therapists for two exciting positions:

We are looking for

Both positions are primarily based at Skovgården in Humlebæk.

With us you will be part of a development-oriented department with high professionalism and a strong collegial community.

Who are we?

The Outpatient Training consists of 44 staff members, including occupational and physical therapists, development therapist, administrative staff and a management unit that receives and distributes rehabilitation plans and other inquiries.

We place emphasis on high professionalism, knowledge sharing and close interdisciplinary collaboration. This applies both within the individual teams, across The Outpatient Training and together with colleagues and partners in the rest of the municipality.

With us you get professional sparring and at the same time great independence in planning your workday.

We offer

• A strong professional and collegial community
• Close interdisciplinary collaboration and opportunity for professional sparring
• A self-directed everyday life with freedom and responsibility
• Focus on professional development, work environment and well-being
• Opportunity to contribute to the development of our rehabilitation initiatives

• Introduction to the organisation, workflows and colleagues
• Thorough training in relevant systems and documentation practices
• Close sparring with experienced colleagues
