About the job

Your tasks at the health center cover a wide range of responsibilities and include the general medical field where you meet patients of all ages and situations. You work health-promoting, advisory, and treating in primary care, both via phone, digital care meetings, and at the clinic.

The work is carried out through both acute and planned activities. You will largely work independently, and having your own clinic may become relevant, where you both treat and follow up patients. Close collaboration takes place with your colleagues in the unit and cross-professionally in the team. Together with the health center management, all employees are encouraged to develop and drive the business forward. Educating future colleagues is an important and rewarding part of our mission, so supervising students is also part of your role at the health center.

About you

You are a licensed nurse and have experience working at a health center and/or experience working in regional or municipal primary care. It is an advantage if you have completed a supervisor training course of 7.5 credits.

We are looking for someone who takes initiative in their work and is confident in making their own decisions. You are meticulous, have good problem-solving skills, and can effectively prioritize among your tasks.

In your work, you meet many patients, so it is important that you have a good attitude, are accommodating, attentive, and have a desire to help others. We also believe that you enjoy teamwork and that it is natural for you to collaborate with colleagues and other contacts. You can express yourself well in both speech and writing, and you are an engaged and good listener in both digital meetings and visits to the clinic. We also hope that you have an interest in digitalization and business development.

We also see that you embody Närhälsan's core values: Reliable, Caring, and Innovative.

About the recruitment process

The selection takes place in two steps. The first selection is made by recruiters in the HR department who call candidates for a phone interview. Thereafter, the recruiting manager makes a second selection of the applicants and invites them to an interview at the health center.

We use competency-based interviews, which means that the answers to the questions should be based on actual situations. It is important that you describe as concrete situations as possible and try to avoid generalizing answers - this is so we can understand the situation, why you acted as you did, and what the outcome was.
