Description
What if you helped us design a more inclusive society?
Located in the Vevey region, between town and countryside, the Cité du Genévrier welcomes adults with disabilities due to intellectual impairment. A multidisciplinary and multi-site structure, it offers the residents a particularly harmonious living and working environment as well as a range of skills adapted to the needs and aspirations of each individual.
Integrated into the Eben-Hézer Foundation, the Cité du Genévrier is the custodian of the moral testament of its founder, Sister Julie Hofmann. It therefore considers the happiness of the residents as the ultimate goal of its action.
Mission

You will collaborate with the team to provide physiotherapy support for a population with mental and/or physical disabilities. You will conduct physiotherapy sessions to treat functional limitations resulting from injuries and illnesses affecting muscles, joints, bones as well as the neurological, respiratory, circulatory and cardiac systems.

Finally, you will have the chance to work interdisciplinarily with your therapist colleagues from various professions, sharing knowledge and group activities with the residents.
