Make a Difference. Every Day.

Are you looking for a workplace where collaboration between professions is a given and seen as a prerequisite for providing trust, security, and good care to those in need? Then you should apply to us! With warmth and commitment, we now welcome a new nurse who wants to help provide our patients with highly specialized care.

In our department, we care for patients in urology and vascular surgery. Our patients are both men and women of various ages who come to us due to acute conditions, cancer surgery, or elective care in the form of various surgical procedures.

The urological procedures include everything from minor interventions in the urinary tract to nephrectomy and prostatectomy, as well as the largest surgical procedure at Helsingborg Hospital; cystectomy. Our vascular patients undergo elective and emergency surgery with both open surgery and endovascular treatment. The vascular surgical procedures include treatment of all of the body's vascular systems except for the heart and brain. The most common procedures are treatment of peripheral artery disease, aortic disease, and carotid disease.

Many of our patients require ongoing care, which allows for genuine patient contact and continuity of care. We also take care of and care for patients in the end stages of life. Patients need both shorter and longer stays in the department, which means a constant change in the patient group and thus also in the care measures.

We continuously work on improvement efforts, place great emphasis on education, and can thus provide everyone with an opportunity to feel involved and have an impact. By working towards providing the best and safest care possible, we create added value, not only for our patients but also for us as employees. Our strong focus on patient safety and preventive measures has created a sense of security and a good working environment. Here, we strive for our employees to feel satisfied with their work after their shifts.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a nurse, you will work alongside competent and friendly colleagues with a strong focus on the patient and patient safety. We have clear roles in the collaboration around the patient's care. During the day, staff have set aside time for collaboration with the municipality via Mina planer, Collaboration at Discharge (SVU), and operational staff who manage the logistics around our care places. Additionally, there is support available from a dietitian, physiotherapist, occupational therapist, and social worker in your daily work. To facilitate collaboration, we set aside time daily for team check-ins regarding patients. By working with us, you will gain broad knowledge and experience in urology and vascular surgery. You will also gain knowledge in acute care within both urology, vascular, and other surgical diagnoses as we have a close collaboration with surgery.

We have a clinical nursing leader who will follow you as a new employee in the department, with regular follow-ups during your introduction and then serves as a support function. We have scheduled training days for all staff. You will have a full day every four weeks together with your colleagues where you receive instruction on current topics to ensure that you get what you need to develop in your workplace. If you are newly graduated, you have the opportunity to participate in Region Skåne's clinical foundation year. The clinical foundation year includes lectures, clinical skills training, and mentor meetings. We have a close collaboration with our outpatient clinic, where many of the nurses have previously worked in the urology ward. There is also the opportunity for further education in urology through the advanced urology course, 15 credits, and in vascular through the course Nursing in Vascular Diseases and Vascular Surgery/Endovascular Treatment.

Working hours and training are scheduled for day and evening shifts, and there is also the possibility to mix the schedule and work a few nights per schedule period, which gives you good opportunities to get to know the department. After training, there is the possibility for further guidance from our clinical nursing leader.

Weekend work occurs two out of five weekends.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse with the authority to practice within Swedish healthcare. Language skills in Swedish corresponding to at least level C1 according to the Council of Europe's scale are a requirement. If you also have further education in urology or vascular, it is an advantage for the position. Likewise, we see work experience in surgery and/or urology and vascular as beneficial, as well as if you have experience working in the Melior and Orbit systems.

To succeed in the role, you are focused, enjoy pace changes, and can prioritize among your tasks. You show care for patients and their relatives and are a good colleague. We will place great emphasis on personal suitability.
