Nurse at the Adult Psychiatric Clinic in Fagersta

As a nurse with us at the Adult Psychiatric Clinic in Fagersta, you will meet patients with all psychiatric diagnoses. The work is varied, allowing you to work broadly with treatment, counseling, and home visits. At our clinic, we work with competence exchange, which provides you with further development and challenges in your work.

Job Responsibilities

We strive to provide our patients with good care and professional treatment in an organization that is undergoing change and development. As part of keeping up with this development, we work with competence exchange. This means that you, as a nurse, will be offered the opportunity to perform certain tasks that previously fell under the responsibility of doctors. We are also actively working to digitize our operations to offer conversations and treatments via digital channels. This is a way to more effectively provide our patients with quick, individualized, and high-quality care.

As a nurse with us, your responsibilities will include preparing, administering, and following up on prescribed medication, journal administration, supportive conversations, and telephone counseling. In your role, you are an important link in the patient's rehabilitation, which means you will regularly collaborate with others, both internally within the organization and with other external care providers in, for example, coordinated individual plans. Home visits may also occur.

About the Workplace

In Region Västmanland, all adult psychiatry is gathered in one organization, which creates good conditions for a well-functioning care chain and good cooperation between different units. Adult Psychiatry Västmanland is divided into two sections: inpatient care and outpatient care. Inpatient care is located in Västerås and consists of five care departments and an emergency reception. The Adult Psychiatric Clinics are organized under outpatient care, which, in addition to Västerås, also operates in Köping, Fagersta, and Sala.

The Adult Psychiatric Clinic in Fagersta caters to patients with mental health issues requiring specialist care and residing in the municipalities of Fagersta, Norberg, Virsbo, or Skinnskatteberg. The clinic employs doctors, social workers, psychologists, PTP psychologists, occupational therapists, nurses, caregivers, and administrative staff, totaling around 20 dedicated and knowledgeable employees. We are a well-functioning clinic characterized by openness, collaboration, and respect for each other's competencies.

For us, it is important that you feel good and enjoy your job; therefore, we offer you:

• tailored introductory program to help you feel secure in your professional role

Qualifications

We are looking for a licensed nurse, preferably with specialist training in psychiatry. Experience in psychiatric care is an advantage, as is experience working as a nurse and familiarity with the Cosmic journal system. Since the role requires you to communicate verbally and in writing with patients, relatives, and colleagues, good knowledge of the Swedish language is required. A B driver's license is also required for the position.

We place great importance on personal qualities and suitability. Therefore, we see that you are secure and stable in your professional role and have the ability to plan and organize your work in a structured manner that allows you to effectively drive the work forward. When situations arise that may create stress, you remain calm and focus on what is relevant at the moment. You are someone who sees opportunities in a changing organization and has the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. The work involves a significant amount of collaboration and cooperation, both internally in a multidisciplinary team and externally with other actors, requiring the ability to collaborate and be receptive to different perspectives.
