Vacant job

The position is located within the Health and Care Administration, which is one of eight administrations in Linköping Municipality. The Health and Care Administration is responsible for the municipality's elderly care, health care, authority exercise, ordering of services, and operates care and support on its own. We work with quality awareness and professionalism to make every day as good as possible for the residents of Linköping who need us. Do you want to improve the daily lives, future, and quality of life for the residents of Linköping? With us, you can combine important tasks with a meaningful everyday life. Welcome to us!

Your tasks
Our vision is clear: "A Smart Care for the Future." Do you want to help shape the future of care and support? Then you might be the one we are looking for! To meet the aging population while maintaining good quality, we need to increase our staff with the right competencies.

In May 2026, Linköping Municipality will take over the responsibility for home care, home health care, home rehabilitation, and assessed assisted living in the southwest area, which includes Lambohov, Skäggetorp, Vikingstad, and Ulrika/Nykil.

Working as a nurse on call suits you if you enjoy challenges and a varied workday. You need to be able to assess and prioritize between different patients' care needs, especially in situations where multiple patients require care simultaneously. During your shift, you will attend planned cases as well as incoming urgent assessments that need to be made. This includes managing medications, infusions, and medical technology equipment.

Once you have worked for a while and feel secure in your role, you will have the opportunity to work on the phone (care to care) during certain shifts. In the care to care function, you will receive calls from nursing staff and care neighbors and make assessments over the phone. You will also support your colleagues who are out on patient visits. This includes guiding and advising nursing staff over the phone where you need to gather relevant information to determine the urgency and whether a physical examination by a nurse is necessary.

Your workplace
Our on-call operations are based at Ålerydsvägen 5. The on-call service receives all patients within the municipal health care organization. This means patients from nursing homes, home health care, within LSS, and social psychiatry. Therefore, you will meet patients in their own homes as well as in our various facilities around Linköping Municipality. With us, you will have the opportunity to develop as you encounter a wide variety of care needs.

During a shift, there is always one nurse in the care to care phone who receives incoming calls and distributes cases to their mobile colleagues in the field. The number of mobile colleagues on duty depends on the current care load. Currently, six nurses work on call. You will also work together with nurses from home health care and municipal health care with some duty in the on-call service as well as night nurses.

Your working hours are scheduled from 14:00 to 22:30 and 16:00 to 21:00 during the schedule period. Duty every third weekend is included.

Who you are
We are looking for a licensed nurse, and it is advantageous if you are a specialist nurse in elderly care, a district nurse, or have another focus that the employer considers equivalent. You need to have at least two years of work experience as a nurse. Experience working as a nurse in municipal health care and/or at a health center is also advantageous. We also see it as an advantage if you have experience in making phone assessments in your role as a nurse. Additionally, experience with medical technology equipment such as CVK and KAD is desirable.

Since the work involves documentation and contact with patients and relatives, it is a requirement that you have good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written, as well as good computer skills. You need to have a B driver's license for manual transmission considering that you work mobile throughout Linköping Municipality.

As a person, you work well with others, listen, communicate, and resolve conflicts constructively. Furthermore, you have the ability to lead work and understand how individuals absorb knowledge, and can therefore adapt how you convey information to achieve common goals.

In your work, you can plan, organize, and prioritize your tasks and have an easy time adapting to changing circumstances. You make correct assessments and have the ability to weigh complex information and various considerations.
