Are you looking for a meaningful role where you can truly make a difference?

We are now seeking more dedicated employees who want to help shape the future of Värnamo. With us, you will work with a focus on people and create a workday that is valuable for both you and our citizens.

Description

We are looking for a licensed nurse for home healthcare in ordinary housing within Värnamo municipality.

Responsibilities

The work involves being responsible for health and medical care interventions in municipal healthcare. You will be responsible for both planned and acute health and medical care interventions for both younger and older patients.

As a nurse, you will independently make medical assessments, treatments, and actions. Since patients' care needs vary, the tasks range from common interventions such as medication management, sampling, and wound care to more advanced interventions such as dialysis, infusions, and management of tracheostomy, CVK/venous ports, and drainage. Support is available from specialists in areas such as palliative advanced care, wound care, and psychiatric coordination. We also have access to a methodology where some training is conducted. There, you can also renew your knowledge.

Together with colleagues, you will work in a team to ensure the best quality for those we serve. You need to be able to work independently and make your own decisions. Being attentive and empathetic is natural for you, as is having a holistic view in your work with people. Your work will primarily be during the day, but some evening and weekend shifts are included.

According to our values, you need to be able to:

  • Put the needs and interests of those we serve at the center.
  • Take an active responsibility for developing the organization and yourself.
  • Collaborate across boundaries and utilize each other's competencies.
  • Promote job satisfaction, be able to place your work in a larger context, enjoy your work, and feel professional pride.

Qualifications

As a nurse in Värnamo Municipality, you need to have good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written.

As a person, you are calm and secure and have the ability to create a positive climate. You are attentive and empathetic and find it easy to collaborate both internally and externally. You are good at planning and organizing and prioritize your work independently and efficiently. Patient participation and collaboration with relatives are self-evident for you. Creating a good work environment based on a strong team spirit is important to us. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.

We offer

When you start your position as a nurse with us, you will have a designated mentor. The introduction period is individual and tailored to your experiences and qualifications. You will also receive an experienced mentor whom you can always ask your questions.
