Huddinge Remand Prison is located in Flemingsberg and is one of the security remand prisons that receives detainees both with and without restrictions. The prison also has a remand branch in Nacka. You can easily reach Huddinge Remand Prison by train and a short walk from Flemingsberg station.

JOB DESCRIPTION

Kriminalvården provides some open health and medical care, which means that all prisons and remand prisons have medical clinics where detainees can seek care. As a nurse, you will assess minor ailments, as well as determine which applicants should see a doctor. This means you will work with both somatic and psychiatric health care for detainees, assist during medical consultations, and administer medications primarily through dose dispensing. Documentation is done in the PMO patient data journal.

Collaboration with other correctional staff is an essential part of the job. This includes training and mentoring client-facing staff in health and medical care issues such as suicide prevention, emergency care, and medication administration.

Working hours are daytime, Monday - Friday, with weekend work approximately every 4th weekend.

We will need full-time substitutes during the period from week 25 to week 33. We prefer candidates who can work the entire period, but even if you cannot work the whole period, it may still be of interest. There is also a high likelihood of opportunities to work as an hourly employee both before and after the summer substitute period.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who is reliable, secure, and stable in both your professional role and as a person. You have a high ability to collaborate and work well with others even in acute situations. You take personal responsibility and work independently but are also aware that you are part of a team. You can communicate in an advisory manner with non-medical staff categories. In your professional role, you make correct assessments and priorities and meet people in distress with calm and stability. You are structured and meticulous, even in administrative tasks such as record-keeping.

To thrive and succeed in your role, it is important that you share Kriminalvården's fundamental values of a humane view of humanity, respect for the individual, and belief in human development. You are also aware of and understand how background, culture, and group affiliation affect yourself and others. Furthermore, you are expected to contribute to ensuring that everyone is treated equally through your approach. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.

We are looking for someone who:

• Is a licensed nurse
• Has at least 1 year of experience in the profession
• Speaks and writes good Swedish

Experience in the following areas is an advantage:

• Relevant further education or experience for the job, such as in psychiatry, emergency care, or outpatient care.
• Previous work with incarcerated patients

The selection process for this recruitment will begin after the application period has ended.
