Physiotherapist (80%), Ageing and Care

The Ageing and Care department of the City of Winterthur offers a diverse range of services primarily for older people, with five care homes and Spitex.

Our interprofessional therapy team consists of nine physiotherapists, four occupational therapists, two coordinators, and students. At all five locations, we treat patients from the fields of geriatrics, orthopaedics, internal medicine, neurology, and psychiatry. Together, we support patients and residents in various life and care situations, from transitional and long-term care to outpatient services. We work closely with nursing staff, doctors, and other professional groups.

Would you like to support older people as a physiotherapist in maintaining or regaining their mobility, independence, and quality of life for as long as possible? Do you enjoy working independently, value team exchange, and wish to contribute and develop professionally from 1 January 2027 or by arrangement? Then we look forward to meeting you.
