About our job opening

We are now looking for a nurse to join our orthopedic center.

With us, you will be part of an experienced and development-oriented team where structure, competence, and the willingness to try new things are central values. Initially, you will start working in inpatient care. Over the years, your responsibilities are expected to change as you take on new roles based on your level of competence. In inpatient care, we work in teams around the patient with the goal of providing the best orthopedic care, while a broad mindset is important as patients often have multiple health conditions.

Professional knowledge is crucial for the quality of care. For this reason, you will have time allocated in your schedule each week for professional development.

At the orthopedic center, we have an integrated operation between inpatient and outpatient care, where you can become eligible for new generalized or specialized roles in both inpatient and outpatient settings as your clinical competence grows.

Our mission includes

• Acute orthopedics
• Acute ortogeriatrics
• Elective orthopedics
• Orthopedic outpatient care
• Pediatric orthopedics in outpatient care
• Osteoporosis care
• Educational care unit where we have final examinations for about 50 nursing students each semester

Your profile

We are looking for someone who has a Swedish nursing license with at least four months of experience in the profession, preferably with experience in orthopedics. We place great emphasis on personal suitability, such as good collaboration skills, a positive attitude towards change, and the development of the workplace. We also value a pedagogical approach and the ability to work independently.

If you are in your final semester of the nursing program or have less than four months of professional experience, we encourage you to apply for our introductory programs. Read more about SÄS's introduction offer for newly graduated nurses here.
