The social-pedagogical-psychiatric model ward SOMOSA offers an inpatient 6- to 12-month intensive treatment program for 14- to 18-year-old female and male adolescents who are in a severe adolescent crisis. The goal of the treatment is to stabilize the clients' personalities to the extent that they can cope with the existing supportive or replacement socialization systems upon discharge.

As a recognized listed hospital in the field of child and adolescent psychiatry and as a youth home with a social-pedagogical mandate, we fulfill both requirements through long-standing, intersystemic collaboration in the fields of social pedagogy, nursing, psychotherapy, and work education.

In our multifunctional workshops, we offer clients individual work training tailored specifically to their personal needs. This includes close supervision and professional guidance in dealing with new media as well as accompanying offers to promote social and professional skills.

Within the framework of individual work training, we place special emphasis on the development of work consistency and social competence. Your expertise, empathy, creativity, and commitment are crucial to supporting our clients in their personal development.

Without production pressure, you will develop an individual work plan together with the clients. The goal is to enable them to experience daily successes through suitable tasks and clear structures – and thus accompany them step by step on their path to greater independence and participation.

Thanks to your professional competence, as a member of the treatment team, you will implement the SOMOSA-specific therapeutic-pedagogical concept together with your colleagues from psychiatric, psychotherapeutic, and social-pedagogical areas.

As a team member, you gladly contribute to an organizational culture characterized by mutual learning as an innovative process, flexibility, openness and transparency, efficient work, and learning from mistakes.
