By working with daily structure, activity balance and ergonomics, you help the patient find working methods and routines that strengthen their well-being. The role also includes giving lectures and leading groups in smaller formats, where you get the opportunity to inspire and support participants in their rehabilitation.
Together with the patient and the team, you set goals for the rehabilitation period and follow them up to ensure that each step is meaningful and forward-looking.
Based on patient safety and working environment, and with a focus on maintaining the care guarantee, we conduct improvement and process work based on basic methods. Your role is to, together with the team, drive the work and process forward.
