Your tasks

We are looking for nurses for the healthcare emergency center in Värmland. As a nurse at the emergency center, you will receive calls related to care and people in crisis from the emergency number 112. The assignment involves ensuring that patients receive the right care at the right level with the right resources at the right time. It is a challenging job where you support callers with everything from birth to the end of life. Sometimes it is urgent and an immediate ambulance is needed, in other cases, a referral to another level of care or provider may be what helps the patient best. It is your task as a nurse to make these assessments over the phone based on your previous experiences in healthcare.

The positions are summer temporary with the workplace in Karlstad.

It is important that you as an applicant are good at collaborating between different providers to help the patient in the best way possible. You will be involved in creating good conditions for the staff working pre-hospital, and a prerequisite is that you want to work together as a team and contribute to continuous improvements and develop the unit and its working methods.
