Together we develop Sahlgrenska University Hospital for a sustainable future

We are transforming healthcare with the goal of becoming Europe's leading university hospital by 2032. Together with patients, we work towards quality, accessibility, patient safety, research, education, and innovation – in a cohesive healthcare system in Västra Götaland. Our vision and goals aim for care of the highest quality, where the patient is always in focus. We provide healthcare locally and regionally, as well as highly specialized care to patients across the country and abroad. Our employees are our strength and contribute to knowledge exchange nationally and internationally. With digital tools and new working methods, we can simplify everyday life at the hospital and offer modern, accessible, and efficient care of the highest quality.

About the organization

Within the Department of Medicine, Geriatrics, and Emergency Care East, approximately 800 people work in the emergency department, inpatient wards in medicine, outpatient clinics, research units, and community care teams.

Everything we do is patient-centered, and our way of working reflects this. We actively engage in development and research and enjoy working together.

What do we offer?

We are passionate about creating value for our patients! We work together in teams to ensure the right competencies are present around the patient. We place great value on having a sustainable work environment, both in terms of working conditions and good collaboration among all professions. As more care can be managed outside the hospital and more patients need us, we need to expand our community care unit. This unit is driving the work to establish the Sahlgrenska at Home concept, within which we can offer certain treatments at home instead of in inpatient care.

In the Community Care Team, you will be part of a group of nurses and doctors providing specialized care in a home environment. The Community Care Team collaborates closely with emergency departments, pre-hospital care, emergency services, care units within Sahlgrenska University Hospital, as well as regional and municipal primary care. We offer you a stimulating job in a well-functioning group of nurses and doctors, good opportunities to take responsibility, and great possibilities to participate in development work that can improve conditions for our patients and your colleagues.

Job responsibilities

We are looking for someone interested in acute specialized care who enjoys solving problems with the patient in focus, together with other stakeholders around the patient. You thrive in and find it easy to work in a team while also being unafraid to make your own decisions and take responsibility. In the role of nurse with us, you will staff one of our vehicles together with a colleague.

We place great value on flexibility to meet as many patients as possible, and you need to be able to handle both a fast pace and the fact that the day's plan may change. The pace of development is high, so you need to enjoy rapid changes in working methods and routines. Regular work in the evenings and weekends will occur.

About you

We are looking for a licensed nurse with at least three years of experience. You must hold a valid B driver's license. Specialist training and/or experience in emergency, pre-hospital, or inpatient care is highly meritorious. Experience with ELVIS, SAMSA, and Melior is an advantage.

To thrive with us, you need to have a good ability to prioritize your work, make your own decisions, and collaborate with others. Personal suitability is of utmost importance.

Selection and appointment will occur continuously during the application period, so do not wait to submit your application!
