Workplace Description

The Swedish National Board of Institutional Care (SiS) is an authority responsible for individually adapted compulsory care for young people and for adults with substance abuse issues. We do this in special youth homes and LVM homes across the country. SiS also implements secure youth care and finances research to develop care and treatment. Regardless of where in our organization you work, or what position you hold, you help create life-changing transformations.

SiS youth home Bärby outside Uppsala receives non-school-attending boys with psychosocial issues as well as criminal and substance abuse problems, sexually boundary-crossing behaviors, and boys with special supervision needs. The institution also has a department for reception and needs assessment.

We want to strengthen the institution with an additional engaged nurse on a part-time basis. The institution operates based on a central quality unit with treatment secretaries, treatment coordinators, and a health and medical care organization consisting of nurses, psychologists, and consulting physicians. Organizationally, the nurse is under the quality manager and has significant responsibility and influence over the health and medical care needs of the youth.

Job Description

As a nurse at SiS youth home Bärby, you collaborate with other professionals in an important societal mission contributing to change. With us, you are a support function for treatment staff regarding issues related to the youth's health and medical care needs. Main areas of responsibility and work include medication management, health assessments, nursing interventions, and collaboration with both internal and external parties regarding health and medical care in connection with admission, during the care period, and before discharge or transfer within SiS, as well as participating in the student health team.

Qualifications

• Licensed nurse with several years of experience.
• Experience in documentation and writing medical records.
• Good knowledge of the Swedish language.

Particularly relevant experience includes working with youth in psychiatry, substance abuse, or student health. It is important that you have an interest in working with youth with behavioral issues and that you are skilled at establishing collaboration with both youth and staff. You need to have a good ability to plan and organize your work and the ability to prioritize your work based on emerging needs.

Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability. We are looking for someone with high personal maturity, who is secure and stable. You communicate clearly, are attentive and affirming in your interactions with youth. You can build alliances and create collaborations with youth with challenging behaviors, and can help youth feel trust and confidence in you.
