Your Profile

We at the Rheumatology Clinic are now looking for a new colleague who wants to work with us. We are looking for a licensed nurse, whether newly graduated or experienced, who has a genuine interest in people and always keeps the patient in focus. Previous experience in rheumatology is an advantage but not a requirement. We would like you to be positive about being part of driving the operations forward with your team, to be willing to try new things, and to be part of developing the future of rheumatology. We are looking for someone who enjoys a workplace where you can work with varied tasks at a varied pace.

You easily adapt to changing circumstances and thrive in an environment where situations can suddenly become acute. You have a good ability to work calmly and steadily even in challenging situations. It is important for you to treat everyone with respect and empathy, whether they are colleagues or patients. We place great emphasis on qualities such as good collaboration skills and personal suitability. The team is small, and communication paths are short, which benefits both staff and our patients.

It means a lot to us that you have a positive attitude towards both tasks and colleagues. Together, we create high patient safety, a forward-thinking spirit, and good accessibility, with the patient in focus. It is important that you are the right person for our workgroup.

Our Offer to You

The position is a permanent employment with a workload of 100%, daytime. Start date is according to agreement, but we would like you to be able to start with us as soon as possible. It is important for us to utilize our staff's competencies correctly, and working according to the right use of competence (RAK) is something we see as a given. This means that we take advantage of everyone's skills and ensure that you work with what you have knowledge and competence to perform. For nurses, this means that the focus is on specific nursing care.
