About the position

AVA receives patients with acute conditions in medicine, surgery, infection, and orthopedics directly from the Emergency Department. Here, patients are examined, diagnosed, and treated in the acute phase, and when the patient is diagnosed, they are moved to the theme where the diagnosis belongs, or it is assessed that the patient no longer needs further care and can therefore be discharged home. We have the capability for telemetry monitoring, vital parameter monitoring, NIV treatment, and optiflow treatment. The average length of stay in AVA is about 1.5 days.

MAVA receives acutely ill patients with various medical conditions such as infections, intoxications, unclear chest pains, arrhythmias, and elderly multi-sick patients. We have a high patient flow and short lengths of stay. Patients come to us from the emergency department or from other wards that need a higher level of monitoring. Our goal is to offer a stimulating and developing work environment, where you work closely with colleagues from various professions in emergency care. Through effective routines, participation, and competent staff, we create a good workplace for the future of care.
