Top-Class Burn Care! Nurses, look here!

Do you want to work in a world-class burn clinic and simultaneously develop your skills in wound care? Then this might be the job for you! The Burn Center offers you the opportunity to enhance your skills in burn care.

Our Operations

Welcome to Sweden's hottest workplace in Uppsala! Just below the helicopter pad, we operate one of the country's two units for national highly specialized burn care. Here, we work in multidisciplinary teams, always with the patient in focus. We care for burn patients from the acute phase, requiring advanced intensive care, to intermediate care and finally rehabilitation before the patient is discharged. This provides continuity in care and close contact with the patient and their relatives. The department has an operating room where our patients are operated on.

Our operations are complemented by a clinic where we receive minor injuries and care for patients who have been discharged from the department. Right now, the burn clinic needs a new colleague.
