Intensive Care Nurse at Region Jämtland Härjedalen

Do you want to be a part of Region Jämtland Härjedalen - a region to long for and grow in? With us, you contribute to development and growth throughout the county and work to provide the best possible service, care, and support for everyone living in or visiting the region.

We offer a work environment characterized by collaboration, participation, and commitment, where both breadth and specialized competence are valued. Here you will have the opportunity to develop in your role, whether you are new to the profession or have extensive experience.

At our intensive care unit (ICU), we are about 60 nurses and nursing assistants who, together with doctors and physiotherapists, run a general intensive care unit that cares for severely ill and seriously injured patients of all ages.

Each year, we care for about 2,000 patients, of which 600 are intensive care patients. The rest are postoperative patients and patients in need of, for example, epidural catheter insertion or central venous catheter (CVC) placement.

Our responsibilities also include the Mobile Intensive Care Group (MIG), the ICU outpatient clinic (follow-up for ICU patients), and participating in trauma alarms in the emergency department. We meet patients and their relatives in situations where life is at stake, making our work feel meaningful and rewarding!

As an intensive care nurse with us, you have overall responsibility for the advanced nursing and high-tech care we provide.

We work in teams around the patient together with nursing assistants, speech therapists, doctors, and physiotherapists. In emergency medicine, your contributions are also needed in other areas of the hospital, such as handling cases together with anesthesiologists during MIG alarms and trauma alarms.

Our schedule also includes time for development work and quality assurance. Annually, we conduct team exercises and training initiatives, including A-HLR. At least once a month, we also have scheduled training afternoons.

The advanced care we provide places high demands on your competence in anatomy, physiology, medical technology, and, not least, ethics. Good communication skills and the ability to collaborate with colleagues and other entities are required.
