Tasks of the unit 

The resource management unit provides staff in the care and social welfare sector with the resources to meet the various temporary needs of the various work units in the wellbeing services region. 

The goal is to have enough staff in wards working under considerable pressure and to react quickly to load variations. 

Who are we?

The employees of the resource management unit are mainly internal substitutes, i.e. permanent employees with different job descriptions. These people are there to jump in at short notice, as holiday substitutes and as substitutes for statutory absences. In addition to this, external substitutes are hired when needed, for example during holiday periods. 

The work of the employees of the Resource Management Unit includes direct and indirect care / service according to the specialised / service needs of the client or patient. The work tasks follow the work tasks of the units. 

Recruitment

In order to promote recruitment, the Resource Management Unit works closely with the region’s educational institutions that focus on social welfare and healthcare services as well as with the heads of the units.
