Welcome to KAVA at Östersund Hospital!

We have now launched our new monitoring units in the surgical emergency care department (KAVA) - and we are looking for you who want to help shape the future of emergency care!

At Östersund Hospital, you will work in a dynamic department where we receive surgical patients with increased care needs. This fall -24, we have opened 3 monitoring units where you will have the opportunity to work closely with patients, providing advanced care and collaborating closely with doctors.

In surgical department 3, KAVA, we operate based on a concept where teamwork, high physician presence, patient involvement, and continuous professional development are central. We also work with needs-based care planning, daily management, and a strong focus on quality in care.

Östersund Hospital is the only emergency hospital in the Jämtland Härjedalen Region - we receive patients from the entire region and are responsible for both residents and many visitors during summer and winter. This makes the work varied, meaningful, and challenging.

With us, you will have the opportunity to work where you truly make a difference - in a region that offers active outdoor life, mountain-adjacent nature, and a good life both inside and outside of work, a life with a golden touch. Considering moving here? We are happy to assist with housing!

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a nurse with us at KAVA, you will play an important role in the acute surgical care chain. You will meet patients who come in via the emergency department for examination, monitoring, and treatment - often with complex conditions and rapidly changing care needs.

The work is varied, fast-paced, and meaningful. You will be responsible for monitoring, medication management, documentation, and coordinating efforts around the patient's care. Together with nursing assistants, doctors, and other professionals, you are a central part of a safe and experienced team focused on the patient.

We work cross-professionally together with care planning nurses, pharmacists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and medical secretaries. On-site, there is also a lead nurse who supports and organizes the work during the day, as well as a unit coordinator who handles administrative parts such as transport orders, bed allocation, and telephony.

The length of stay varies from one day to several - depending on the patient's condition. You will work closely with the monitoring units and contribute to the acute care.

With us, you get:

• To work closely with patients in a department where clinical judgment and good care are crucial
• A secure introduction for 6 weeks along with observation in the surgical field, so you get to know the entire flow
• To be part of a workgroup that values quality, development, and joy in everyday life

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for a licensed nurse with an interest in trauma and surgical emergency care, but you are equally welcome as a newcomer to the profession and ready to dive into something new!

Do you have a sharp clinical eye, a calm head in fast situations, and a heart for teamwork? Then you will thrive with us! You are a person who enjoys communicating, collaborating, and taking responsibility - and who also likes to share a laugh amidst seriousness.

With us, we see it as an advantage if you have further education in surgical care, but we also know that competence grows over time. Therefore, we offer good opportunities for development - including the possibility of specialist training with study pay.

And most importantly: you want to be part of making a difference - every day.
