– An everyday hero focused on making life work - for real.
Do you want to make a real difference in people's daily lives? With us, you get to use your problem-solving skills, your professional expertise, and your creativity - every day. We are now seeking an engaged occupational therapist who wants to be part of developing the future of municipal primary care together with a wonderful team where we support each other, laugh together, and solve challenges along the way.
Welcome to us!
We are a close-knit group consisting of occupational therapists, physical therapists, rehabilitation assistants, and vision and hearing representatives. In total, we are thirteen employees who share the joy of work in our daily lives. With us, you work closest to your team colleague who is a physical therapist – yes, you'll become a real power duo in rehabilitation work. In our operations, there is also close collaboration with the municipality's nurses, district nurses, vision and hearing representatives, dietitian, and benefits administrators and family support services.
We all work toward the same goal: creating safe, independent, and meaningful lives for our residents.
Within assistance, health, and healthcare, we are approximately 50 employees working together with joy and strong community. The work involves great freedom and personal responsibility, where you have the opportunity to influence and develop our operations. Our goal is to take steps every day to strengthen health, independence, and security for our citizens.
The Social Administration consists of 600 employees where the breadth of the assignment is extensive. The administration is divided into five operational areas and is present throughout the municipality. We are responsible for providing care and support, assistance and services, as well as health and healthcare to the municipality's residents who need it, at all stages of life.
A day as an occupational therapist in health and healthcare
As an occupational therapist, you are an expert in what really matters – the small and large activities of everyday life. Your mission with us is to promote each individual's activity capacity to create conditions for increased participation, independence, and autonomy in daily life.
The workplace is located in central Krokom where you start your workday and plan the approach together with your nearest physical therapist colleague. In our district areas, we have offices at respective special housing facilities and you get there using one of the municipality's cars.
We make home visits to people in ordinary housing or in special housing/LSS, and you have great freedom to plan your workday together with colleagues.
Right now we are working on implementing new home healthcare agreements, good and close care, and health-promoting and preventive measures.
In your role you will:
assess activity capacity and need for interventions
prescribe and fit assistive devices (yes, you're the problem solver!)
support individuals in living an independent life
guide and educate care staff in rehabilitative approaches
be an important voice in the team's planning and development at team meetings
In short: you help people make their everyday life work – and sometimes even flourish.
Your competence
We are looking for you who:
have Swedish licensure as an occupational therapist
have a Class B driver's license
have good knowledge of Swedish and can express yourself well in speech and writing
have good IT and computer skills since we work extensively in journal systems like Viva and Cosmic Link, and use digital signing as a tool.
It is meritorious if you have:
experience in municipal health and healthcare or home rehabilitation
As a person we believe that you:
are solution-focused and creative (you see opportunities where others see obstacles)
enjoy collaborating but can also work independently
have a warm, humble, and professional demeanor
thrive in a developing operation

Krokom, the municipality in the middle of Jämtland
Krokoms Municipality's boundaries stretch from the shores of Storsjön in the south to the vast and wild mountains in the north, and in the east the northern inland's large forests begin. Here live just over 15,700 residents, in the middle of Jämtland County, with proximity to good communications to the rest of Sweden. Here are fantastic opportunities for a rich cultural and outdoor life. People move here and want to stay, because here life itself gets space. The municipality is part of the Sami administrative area, which means we work to strengthen the Sami language, make the culture visible, and give the Sami influence.– An everyday hero focused on making life work - for real.
