Summer Temporary Position as Midwife

Do you want to contribute and do something meaningful? At the same time, develop yourself and make many connections? Then our summer temporary positions are for you.

With the patient in focus, we provide effective care with knowledge, quality, and compassion. With your help, both we and the patients will improve – welcome to Region Värmland!

Your Workplace

The Women's Health Care is an operation where together with our more than 200 colleagues, we offer outpatient and inpatient care in obstetrics and gynecology.

At Värmland's only delivery ward, approximately 2500 children are born each year, and all births from week 28+0 are handled here. In the delivery ward, we work in teams consisting of midwives, nursing assistants, and doctors. We strive to offer one-to-one care and to have two midwives present at births.

We place great value on having a good work environment where our employees feel seen and enjoy their jobs. Here, we have high ceilings, and cooperation between colleagues should be unpretentious and natural. It should feel safe to come to and be at work. We care about individual conditions and needs, with a work climate characterized by openness and warmth. We have a learning approach and actively work with continuous improvements.

The delivery ward has a close collaboration with the maternity ward, and several of our midwives rotate between the departments. Breastfeeding and support in parenting roles are central to our operations, and in obstetrics, we work with zero separation of mother and child. We also collaborate with the neonatal department, where co-care of mother and child is an important part.

If you want to be a part of this, the Women's Health Care and the delivery ward is your workplace this summer!
