Vacant job

Borlänge municipality's centrally organized student health is a wonderfully dynamic workplace characterized by quality, collaboration, flexibility, and development. Borlänge is the largest urban area in Dalarna with convenient connections to neighboring cities Falun, Säter, and Gagnef. You can also easily travel to and from cities like Hedemora, Ludvika, and Leksand via public transport.

The centrally organized student health has the mission to support the development of local student health and to strengthen the student health perspective. A large part of the work is preventive and health-promoting. The work as a whole is varied and takes place at the organizational, group, and individual levels and in collaboration with school staff, guardians, and other agencies, but of course also cross-professionally within our own operations. Collaboration with other agencies and actors is included as needed.

In the centrally organized student health, school nurses, school doctors, school psychologists, speech therapists, and special educators work towards preschool, as well as a medically responsible nurse and a medical secretary. We work from a school perspective, which is partly regulated by the Education Act and further based on health and medical care laws and their regulations. The organization is led by a unit manager but also has an assistant unit manager who will be your closest supervisor.

Even though you as a school nurse with us are placed out at the school unit, you still have proximity to your school nurse colleagues and other staff in the central student health. You will be part of a work team with other school nurses with whom you also have regular meetings. Furthermore, we work together on various development projects and meet within the framework of our category meetings. You will also receive support and assistance from our medically responsible nurse.

Of course, our values attract you!
- I am here for the residents of Borlänge
- I like challenges
- I meet every person with openness
