Do you want to develop in your profession and become part of an engaged team? In home healthcare, we work in nine different teams - four in rural areas and five in the central town. Each team consists of nurses, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists, and we also have nursing assistants and physiotherapy aides working comprehensively.

As a nurse or district nurse in home healthcare in Vetlanda, you play a key role in meeting the individual care needs of patients - physically, mentally, socially, and culturally. The work is characterized by independence, but you are also an important part of a team where we support each other and develop together.

Your work mainly includes nursing tasks, and you have overall responsibility for the nursing assistants' care efforts. You collaborate closely with primary care physicians through the municipality's health centers and actively contribute to creating safe and quality care.

Your job responsibilities include:

leading, prioritizing, and coordinating care work based on patient needs
assessing medical needs
organizing and initiating doctor contacts
following up, documenting, and assessing self-care

With us, you have the opportunity to influence your working hours through self-scheduling. Our nurses work every fifth weekend and have about 1-2 evening shifts per five-week period.

We see collaboration as a natural part of our work and value your willingness to contribute to the development of the organization. As a new nurse with us, you will receive an introductory program with mentorship to give you the best conditions in your role.
