Assistant Nurse to Surgical Department 34

Do you want to work in an environment where advanced care meets compassion and collaboration? Surgical Department 34 is now looking for an assistant nurse who wants to help create security for patients before and after surgery – in a team where learning, development, and job satisfaction are at the center.

The Surgical Clinic is a regional clinic with both planned and emergency surgical operations around the clock. In Department 34, we work with gastrointestinal surgery as well as ear, nose, and throat surgery. We have 20 beds distributed across four modules and offer both acute and planned care.

Here you will meet patients with varying needs – from abdominal pain to cancer diagnoses – and get to work with both pre- and postoperative care. The length of stay is usually 3–5 days, which provides a high flow and great variation in tasks.

In Region Kronoberg, we are 6,500 people working for the best of the Kronoberg residents – every day! We are responsible for healthcare, public transport, regional development, and culture in the region. Our goal is for our employees to thrive, grow in their professional roles, and be able to influence their workday.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As an assistant nurse with us, you will have a varied and stimulating job where you:

• Support patients before and after surgery and be there during a time that is often both emotionally and physically challenging
• Are responsible for pre- and postoperative care
• Perform sampling and documentation
• Encourage patients to mobilize
• Follow hygiene routines and work with precision
• Collaborate in a team with nurses and contribute to a good work environment
• Participate in improvement work and development of care

You will have the opportunity to develop your skills in surgical care and care technology in an environment where curiosity and learning are encouraged. What you cannot do today, you will learn with us. We offer a safe and individualized introduction. As a newcomer to the department, you will participate in our mentorship group for assistant nurses and nurses, and the introduction for new assistant nurses is about four weeks long.

For those who want to help develop care, there are good opportunities to influence. You can contribute ideas, take responsibility for improvement areas, and be involved in the development work in the department. Here you will help shape the future of surgical care.

We are proud of our permissive climate where collaboration and development are in focus. You will have a manager who is a nurse by training, present in the department, and has an open, supportive leadership style. Here we care about each other and about you.

Well-being and health are an obvious part of our workday. We invest in community and well-being through initiatives such as running groups and various activities that strengthen team spirit. Together we create a workplace where you both develop and feel good.

The position is a one-year temporary contract to replace an employee on study leave.

Welcome to become a part of our team where every day makes a difference. Apply today!
