Together with your colleagues, teamwork is performed where doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, and caregivers all play an important role in the patient's care. Additionally, resources are available in the form of occupational therapists, social workers, psychologists, and physiotherapists.

As a nurse with us, there is room to build good relationships, both with patients and relatives, as well as other actors. You independently plan your own day based on the unit's guidelines and can, with drive and commitment, influence the development work and contribute to the patient reaching their goals.
