About our job opening

We are now looking for nurses to join our fantastic team who want to contribute and gain broad knowledge in general surgical emergency care.

The working hours are scheduled for nights with individual planning.

We offer you

We are pleased to offer senior nurses who provide you with secure support both during your introduction and ongoing for your continued development. Our senior nurses identify training needs based on your needs and follow up and develop our working methods, routines, and guidelines.

About us

Our surgical emergency department (KAVA) is a broad general surgical emergency care unit. We receive most acute patients with a surgical diagnosis. We work with rapid investigations and examinations to meet our patients' care needs and treatments. Admissions occur around the clock, and we have close cooperation with the emergency department and our other surgical ward. Our mission also includes caring for elective patients with colorectal diagnoses, focusing primarily on postoperative care. Our mix consists of both younger and older patients, as well as short and longer care times around the acute patients to the somewhat longer care times for the elective colorectal patients.

Your profile

We are looking for someone with a Swedish nursing license and at least four months of experience in the profession, as well as an interest in surgical emergency care. Experience in surgical care is an advantage. To fit into our team, you should be easy to collaborate with, have a flexible working style, and the ability to create good relationships. Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability.

If you are in your final semester of the nursing program or have less than four months of professional experience, you are referred to apply for our introductory programs. Read more about SÄS's introduction offer for newly graduated nurses here (#).

We conduct selection and interviews on an ongoing basis, so we welcome your application today! Please attach your professional license with your application.
