Make a Difference. Every Day.

Are you a nurse driven to work in a growing and dynamic environment alongside engaged and competent colleagues? We are developing and planning to expand our operations and are therefore looking for another nurse. This could be the job for you!

The Osteoporosis Clinic in Ängelholm is at the forefront in Sweden and is the only clinic in Skåne that investigates, performs advanced treatment, and follows up on the disease progression of osteoporosis in its entirety.

The Osteoporosis Clinic serves the entire northwestern Skåne area and performs bone density measurements. These measurements are conducted to assess the degree of bone density and potential osteoporosis, which forms the basis for treatment recommendations to avoid fractures. The results of the measurements are evaluated by our doctors who provide feedback and any treatment recommendations to those who referred the patients to us. Some of our patients are eligible for continued advanced medication treatment at our clinic.

The Osteoporosis Clinic is located at Ängelholm Hospital in bright and modern facilities. About twelve people work in various professional categories at our clinic, including doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, and medical secretaries. The team also collaborates with physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and dietitians.

The clinic is part of the Rehabilitation Business Area, which is responsible for the overall rehabilitation in the entire northwestern Skåne. The business area includes day rehabilitation, pain rehabilitation, cancer rehabilitation, tone clinic, and osteoporosis clinic. It also includes an inpatient rehabilitation department, and we are responsible for rehabilitation expertise for other inpatient care units at Ängelholm Hospital.

As a nurse with us, you will work to investigate, treat, and follow up on patients with osteoporosis with the goal of preventing future fractures and promoting good quality of life. You will be an important part of a team where collaboration, development, and patient focus are at the center.

Your role includes both clinical and educational work. You will meet patients at different stages of their treatment, provide support and education on lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and medication treatment, and coordinate examinations such as bone density measurements (DXA).

The work also includes clinic work, telephone advice, referral management, and booking patients. In addition, development work, lectures, and collaboration with primary care, as well as work as osteoporosis coordinators, are a natural part of the assignment.

It is a prerequisite for the position that you are interested in medication treatment and want to participate in various types of development work. As a person, you thrive and are attracted to working in a team and show flexibility for the benefit of the patients. It is also an advantage to have a certain technical interest.
