Our vascular patients undergo elective and emergency surgery with both open surgery and endovascular treatment. The vascular surgical procedures include treatment of all vascular systems in the body except for the heart and brain. The most common procedures are treatment of peripheral artery disease, aortic disease, and carotid disease.

Many of our patients require ongoing care, which allows for genuine patient contact and continuity in care. We also take care of and care for patients at the end of life. Patients need both shorter and longer stays in the department, which means a constant change in the patient group and thus also in the care interventions.

We continuously work on improvement efforts, place great focus on education, and thereby provide everyone with an opportunity to feel involved and have a chance to influence. By working towards the best and safest care possible, we create added value, not only for our patients but also for us employees.

Here, we strive for our employees to feel satisfied with their work after their shifts.

In addition, there is the possibility of support from a dietitian, physiotherapist, occupational therapist, and social worker in your daily work. To facilitate collaboration, we allocate time daily for team check-ins regarding patients. By working with us, you gain broad knowledge and experience in urology and vascular surgery.

The working hours and training are scheduled for day and evening shifts, and there is also the possibility to mix the schedule and work some nights per schedule period, which gives you good opportunities to get to know the department.
