Do you enjoy working in a team and want an interesting and developing job? We are now looking for a substitute speech-language pathologist who wants to contribute to helping people with various disabilities live as independently as possible. Work Tasks You will work in a multidisciplinary team where we strive to provide each patient with interventions from a holistic perspective. The work takes place in close team collaboration and is conducted both at and outside the clinic. The team consists of, in addition to a speech-language pathologist, an occupational therapist, social worker, psychologist, nurse, physical therapist, and special education teacher. Connected to the child teams, we also have a doctor and dietitian. As a speech-language pathologist, you will work with assessment, treatment, and follow-up of oral motor difficulties, speech, language, and communication difficulties, as well as eating and swallowing difficulties. You will also perform fittings and prescriptions of communication aids, often with support from the resource unit Dako. A large part of the work consists of providing information, education, and guidance to guardians and others in the patient's network, for example preschool/school. Other parts are interventions directed directly at the patient. You will have the opportunity to receive support from experienced colleagues at the workplace. At the rehabilitation center, we work with conversation, aids, everyday strategies, long-term perspective, and creating connections between people. Our work is based on participation and respect for people's inherent value and self-determination. It is a job with great breadth and variation that involves individual responsibility but also close collaboration with your team colleagues. In this recruitment, we are seeking a substitute for an employee who will be on parental leave. Placement is in one of the child teams. About the Workplace The Rehabilitation Center in Halmstad is divided into three teams, two of which work with children up to 18 years old and one with adults from 18 years old. The department has extensive accumulated experience and a desire and commitment to continuous development to meet patients' needs in the best way. With us, you will receive individual orientation and be offered collegial professional supervision, external team supervision, and participation in regular professional meetings. Qualifications We are looking for you who are a licensed speech-language pathologist. We would like to see that you have experience working in rehabilitation services. It is an advantage if you have knowledge and familiarity with Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC). To ensure good and safe communication with colleagues, patients, and other contacts, we require good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written. The position requires a Class B driver's license. To succeed and thrive in this role, we see that you have a pedagogical approach to presenting and communicating information. You have experience with and appreciate working both in a team and independently. The ability to easily learn and use a variety of digital systems we consider an asset. You are open to changes and new ideas that contribute to improving operations and also share your knowledge. You have a good ability to build good relationships with patients and colleagues. For this position, it is important that you are initiative-taking, flexible in your work approach, and have a good ability to collaborate. We place great emphasis on personal suitability. We warmly welcome your application! In this recruitment, we apply continuous selection and interviews, which means you may be called for an interview before the final application deadline. Before any potential employment, a check is always made in the burden and suspicion registry, as you at the child rehabilitation center will work alone with children.
