We welcome both new and experienced dietitians as applicants – regardless of background, we equip you with the training you need. We are looking for someone with the desire to contribute to the development of tomorrow's rehabilitation!

The Role of Dietitian

We are now seeking a licensed dietitian for the rehabilitation center at Höglandet who wants to become part of an inquisitive and forward-thinking dietitian group with great commitment. Together, we form a central resource both in inpatient and outpatient care in the region, based at Högland Hospital in Eksjö. We meet our patients both at the hospital and digitally. We match our respective areas of expertise to the needs of our patients in surgical and medical care, women's health care, and intensive care.

Your Future Workplace

The rehabilitation center is a county clinic that delivers specialized rehabilitation throughout the county and within both primary and specialized care.

Your workplace is at the rehabilitation center at Högland Hospital where we are about 75 employees. We are: physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dietitians, social workers, psychologists, speech therapists, rehab assistants, and administrative staff, and we all work closely with our collaborating clinics at the hospital as well as health centers and municipalities.

Your Profile

We are looking for you who are a licensed dietitian.

For you to thrive with us, it is important that you, like us, value good communication. It is the trust we have in each other - that we talk to each other, that allows us to solve our tasks. As a group, we are solution-focused and very pleasant, so we believe you are too! We want you to share our curious approach to development and improvement work, and there are good opportunities for professional development.

The position suits you who are stable in yourself, self-driven, and can maintain focus on the right things. Your contribution is important for good and patient-safe care, so we see that you are a meticulous and structured person. Since you will be working in a team, it is important that you are flexible, have good collaboration skills, can take initiative, are good at communicating, and also enjoy working in a group. You take responsibility for planning, organizing, and prioritizing your work efficiently. You have a holistic view where the patient and their relatives are involved and in focus for your efforts. Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability.

Our Offer to You

If you become our new colleague, you will have a varied, fun, and developing job. The rehabilitation center is a county-wide clinic, so colleagues are present at all three hospitals in the county (Ryhov County Hospital in Jönköping and Värnamo Hospital). At Högland Hospital, we are a cohesive dietitian group that helps each other in daily work.

In daily work, you will also be part of interdisciplinary teams around the patient - both with other rehabilitation staff and with doctors and nurses. Some educational initiatives are also included in the position. You may be the one who lectures at patient schools or trains healthcare staff on nutrition. You will also work in our outpatient care, where you independently assess, treat, and follow up patients either individually, in groups, or digitally depending on what suits best. You represent an important resource in your consultative function towards nurses and doctors in primary care. In this way, you contribute to ensuring that good and close care can be provided at home for more people.

To ensure you have a good start with us, you will receive a tailored introduction and shadowing based on your experiences. For those who are less experienced, we also offer mentorship where an experienced colleague shares their knowledge and is available as a sounding board.
