Health and Medical Care Unit

The home care staff performs planned medical interventions at patients' homes, around the clock. The unit can assist with medication, wounds, pain relief, and more. We have a close collaboration with PRIVO (Palliative Advisory Team) and rehabilitation services.

We are now looking for nurses to join our home care team.

Your Responsibilities

As a nurse with us, you will meet your patients in their home environment, which provides security for the patient. By making several home visits each day, you will experience a change of environment. We conduct home visits in urban areas, rural settings, and in the archipelago. Our work involves everything from simpler medical interventions to those requiring advanced medical equipment and technology. Part of the job includes end-of-life care.

As a nurse, you will educate and delegate tasks and responsibilities to staff in our special accommodations and home care services. You are responsible for following up and evaluating the planned interventions. We work in teams where various professionals collaborate around the patients.

With us, you have an independent job where you plan and organize your work yourself. There is ongoing development work within the organization to improve conditions for our patients. You will have great opportunities to participate in this work and contribute with your thoughts and experiences. We have an educational plan within the organization and offer opportunities for specialist training.

Your Qualifications

We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse. For newly graduated nurses, we offer an introductory program with extended support in your new role as a nurse.

We seek individuals who want a mobile job, take responsibility, and work independently. It is important that you have good empathetic skills, strong collaboration abilities, and can communicate with others in a responsive and constructive manner.

You will independently plan your work, which means you need to be able to organize and prioritize your tasks. If the situation requires it, you may need to adjust your planning, so it is important that you are flexible and can see opportunities in changes.
