Specialist for Needs Certification Office - from January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2027

The Dielsdorf Health Center is a specialized care institution with around 430 employees in the Zurich lowlands and ensures care at nursing places for the 22 political municipalities of the Dielsdorf district with approx. 90,000 inhabitants. With over 200 beds, the inpatient offer of general long-term care is complemented by specialized treatment pathways for rehabilitative acute and transitional care, palliative care, psychiatric geriatrics, and the focus on dementia.

The Regional Spitex forms an important part of the care offer. It provides outpatient services for the five contract municipalities. In the future, it is planned to establish a night Spitex.

The Dielsdorf Health Center plays a central role in the care provision of the region. As part of a pilot project to implement the new additional service regulation (ZLV), we are setting up a needs certification office.
