About the Workplace

Östra Närvården includes Region Blekinge's health centers, youth clinics, children's and adolescents' mental health services, wound center, Karlskrona Rehab Center, and the Doctor Car.

Residents of Blekinge who fall ill turn directly to the health centers for access to healthcare that does not require hospital resources. Care is provided in all cities of the county, in several smaller towns, and sometimes in homes. Our goal is to be a modern outpatient care where teamwork and the needs of patients are at the center. Region Blekinge places all permanent staff in a war position.

Wämö health center is a medium-sized public health center located on the hospital grounds in Karlskrona. Here, there are excellent communication opportunities as bus and train stations are in direct proximity. You can quickly reach Karlskrona Centrum by car or bus. Our premises also house the emergency center during evenings and weekends.
