Make a Difference. Every Day.

Welcome to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (BIVA)! We are a multidisciplinary unit providing highly specialized intensive care for children and adolescents aged 0-18 years. Here, you will meet patients with acute infections, metabolic diseases, and pediatric medical conditions in neurology, oncology, and orthopedics. We are one of four pediatric intensive care units in Sweden and have the NHV assignment (national highly specialized care) for pediatric cardiac surgery and pediatric surgery. Our largest patient group consists of children and adolescents with congenital heart defects and congenital surgical malformations. We also have an international mission to receive and care for patients with congenital heart defects from Iceland. We take pride in having world-leading results in pediatric intensive care.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

In an Intensive Care Unit, no two days are alike. Here, we work bedside in interdisciplinary teams where you, as a nurse, collaborate with doctors and nursing assistants to prioritize the child's best interests with the family in focus. It is important that your work is based on the needs of the child and family and characterized by commitment, responsiveness, and structure.

The work we offer you is both varied and stimulating, with opportunities for professional development alongside your dedicated and experienced colleagues. With us, you will receive an introduction based on a longer and individually tailored orientation program suited to your needs, with mentors guiding you throughout the period. You will also participate in the unit's own training sessions with lectures on topics such as respiration and heart defects. Furthermore, you will have the opportunity to join a reflection group where new employees meet and are guided by experienced colleagues.

Ann-Christine, intensive care nurse, shares: The best part of working at BIVA is the wide variety of ages and diagnoses we encounter. It is both developmental and challenging. Meeting children and their families in high-tech intensive care and being there for the child and their parents throughout the care process is incredibly rewarding.

You are warmly welcome to shadow us to gain a personal insight into our operations!

QUALIFICATIONS

We welcome you as a licensed nurse with the authority to practice within Swedish healthcare and who has a specialist education focused on intensive care, pediatrics, or anesthesia. Furthermore, you have language skills in Swedish at least at level C1 according to the Council of Europe's scale. Work experience in intensive care or pediatric care is an advantage.

We are looking for someone who enjoys the challenge of working in intensive care and appreciates nursing work with a lot of medical technology. It is important that you can see the whole picture but also the specifics for each patient and their relatives. We want you, just like us, to value a job characterized by personal responsibility, good treatment, participation, and good collaboration. You see opportunities and want to contribute to development.

As the organization is in constant development, it is essential that you are comfortable with changes and can quickly adapt to altered conditions. You will be part of a stable workgroup characterized by close collaboration. Furthermore, you have a good view of humanity and keep the patient's and the organization's best interests in focus.
