Job Advertisement: Physician in Primary Care Team

The Hospitals in the West is an administration within the Västra Götaland Region and consists of four hospitals – Alingsås Hospital, Angered Primary Care Hospital, Högsbo Primary Care Hospital, and Kungälv Hospital. Approximately 3000 employees work with us every day to provide good and safe specialist healthcare of the highest quality.

Description

As a physician in the Primary Care Team (NSVT), you will work in a team with experienced nurses. NSVT caters to patients with complex care and support needs, where care requires collaboration across organizational boundaries (hospital/community/primary care).

From April 26, 2023, we will introduce an Elderly Team in the emergency department from Monday to Friday. This means that you, as a physician, will work together with a nurse from NSVT, a care coordinator from the emergency department, and rehabilitation staff in the team. This team will receive frail, elderly patients in the emergency department.

You will rotate between NSVT and the Elderly Team in the emergency department.

Responsibilities

Primary Care Team:

The working method within NSVT is symptom-oriented rather than diagnosis-oriented, aiming for a more person-centered, team-based, and proactive approach. NSVT follows the patient until their situation has stabilized.

Elderly Team in the Emergency Department:

In your role as a specialist physician, you will be responsible for the medical care in the Elderly Team and lead the care process in collaboration with others in the team and across organizational boundaries (hospital/community/primary care). A natural part of the role will be to contribute to development work.

Qualifications

We are looking for a specialist physician in geriatrics, general medicine, or internal medicine. You should be confident in your profession and able to take initiative. We expect you to work independently while contributing to successful teamwork in daily operations. You want to help build the future of close care and are interested in developing the operations. You have good knowledge of the Swedish language.

Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability.

Employment Scope

Full-time, rotation service may also be possible.

Other

Selection and interviews will be conducted on an ongoing basis.

If you find this interesting and are a curious and engaged person who wants to help develop close care with us - welcome with your application!
