Nurse for HS-Team 6

Jönköping Municipality is a large employer with hundreds of different job roles. We are growing in line with the municipality's development with more residents, more housing, and a larger range of services. We are always on the lookout for new skills - employees with diverse backgrounds and experiences, united by the common drive to create a better municipality to visit, live, work, and reside in.

Are you a nurse looking for a job with great freedom and responsibility? Do you want to independently plan and structure your workday? Do you also have knowledge and interest in the target group of mental and intellectual disabilities? Then you might be the one we are looking for at HS-Team 6! In 2025, we underwent a reorganization and have recruited the team anew during the summer.

We have recruited nurses to the municipality's psychiatric team (KPT) and the team for intellectual disabilities (TIF). We are now expanding our team and need additional nurses for KPT and TIF!

Your new job

As a nurse in HS-Team 6, you will have patient responsibility for health and medical care services within special accommodations for individuals with intellectual disabilities. This includes service and group housing as well as daily activities. You will perform both planned and acute interventions for patients of all ages in close collaboration with primary and inpatient care. The care needs vary, which means that your tasks range from common interventions to more advanced care – for example, assessment of mental health, medication evaluation, sampling, wound care, dialysis, infusions, and management of tracheostomy, CVK/venous ports, and drainage.

You will be responsible for independent medical assessments, treatments, and actions. We work health-promoting by identifying the patient's resources and abilities, preventing health risks, and motivating lifestyle changes. Documentation, counseling (acute and planned), and educational efforts are central parts of the work to ensure safe and quality care. You collaborate both internally and externally to achieve continuity, efficiency, quality, and patient safety.

Your qualifications

• You are a licensed nurse. If you have specialist training in psychiatry or district nursing, we consider it an advantage.
• You have at least one year of experience as a nurse, and we see it as desirable to have other experience in care and nursing.
• Strongly meritorious with experience working with the target group, mental and/or intellectual disabilities.
• You have good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written, especially since many patients have difficulties with information exchange, requiring good and creative communication skills. You also have good computer skills.
• Good physical mobility is required as the work takes place in home environments, which means you need to adapt your working methods based on the conditions present.
• A valid driver's license (B) is required.

We value that you as a person are flexible, proactive, and positive towards change – your ideas and experiences will be important in our new team. You plan your work efficiently with good prioritization skills. It is important that you collaborate well with others, are attentive, and have constructive communication. We place great emphasis on personal suitability for the position!

We offer you

As an employee with us, you will have access to wellness benefits, paid vacation in your first year of employment, and a generous flexible working hours agreement. We work with a close trust-based leadership, which means you have the freedom to independently plan and structure your workday.
