Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Intensive Reception, Eskilstuna

Do you want to work with children and young people in a varied and team-based context? Are you interested in working with intensive interventions for children and adolescents with eating disorders and other complex psychiatric issues? Does it sound exciting to work with emergency and on-call responsibilities?

Apply for a unique psychologist position where you can use and develop your skills in advanced treatment and assessment work. Be part of developing a cross-professional team and new working methods!

About us

The Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Intensive Reception (BIM) meets children aged 0-17 with severe psychiatric problems and often complex life situations. BIM Eskilstuna is responsible for the northern part of the county's child psychiatric emergency assignments during office hours. We also offer planned treatment interventions for patients who need closer contact or faster interventions than what the regular child and adolescent psychiatric reception can provide.

As a psychologist at BIM, you will be part of a multi-professional team that tailors interventions based on the patient's needs and the team's various competencies. We strive to increase accessibility and provide equitable, effective, and patient-focused care. We will become a team of eight employees from different professions and want to adapt and further develop our treatment and collaboration efforts to meet the needs of patients and families. Currently, we have a great need to build a better eating disorder care system, and we are looking for someone who wants to help create a new team that will become specialists in eating disorders.

Benefits of the job

  • Personal development: Great emphasis is placed on personal qualities, and you will have the opportunity to contribute your unique competencies.
  • Humor and community: We value warmth, humor, and laughter in our team.

Your tasks

  • Contribute diagnostic and psychological expertise in assessments and in planning the team's work.
  • Planned treatment and on-call work during the day.
  • Conduct child psychiatric assessments together with the team's doctors.
  • Interventions can take place in the patient's home or at another location outside the reception.
  • Collaborate with social services and other care providers to identify, explain, and take responsibility for the child psychiatry's part of the whole.

Your qualifications

  • Confident in your professional role and understand your part in a multi-professional team.
