Job Responsibilities

In the intensive care unit, we care for the county's most critically ill patients, with failure in vital functions such as breathing, circulation, and consciousness. Many of our patients are unconscious or sedated and need assistance with all aspects of care. As a nursing assistant with us, you will be welcomed into a staff-rich environment with good camaraderie and close teamwork. We work in teams together with nurses, doctors, and physiotherapists. Our patients require constant monitoring and the presence of staff. To make this possible, nursing assistants work with one to two patients, depending on their care needs. You are an important piece of the puzzle in the care of our patients and their relatives. Your workdays will consist of close care and being the patient's security during serious illness and injury.

Working Hours:

Within Region Dalarna, we have a time valuation model that affects the number of hours worked when you work nights. This means that there will be better schedules with opportunities for recovery when working on rotation (day, evening, and night). The employment entails a collective responsibility for staffing every day of the year and every hour of the day. The calculations in the time valuation model are based on a full-time measure of 37 hours/week. The schedule is planned individually based on the needs of the operation.

Qualifications

You must be a trained nursing assistant. As a person, you contribute with a positive attitude towards your work. You have the ability to create a calm and secure environment for our patients in close collaboration with colleagues. The pace of work can vary, so you need to be prepared for when plans change and be able to quickly adapt. There is much to learn here, so it is important to be curious and always dare to ask if you are unsure. You should function well in a team and have good collaboration skills while also enjoying working independently. For us, it is important to have joy at work, to think innovatively, and to spread positive energy. You take responsibility for your work and are humble enough to step in where needed. You are confident in yourself and want to enjoy your job. We value that you have a passionate interest in advanced care as it is the most important role of the nursing assistant in intensive care.
