Region Västerbotten works to ensure that good health and sustainable development strengthen each other. We take responsibility for equitable welfare and ensure that research and innovation yield results.

The Orthopedic Ward in Umeå has up to 32 patient beds, and we work in interdisciplinary care teams around patients aged 18 to 100+. On the ward, we work in nursing and medical teams to create specialized competence and increase patient safety.

Our facilities are newly renovated and adapted to ensure that our operations function optimally. The Orthopedic Ward is a workplace where we constantly strive to improve and maintain a good working environment, a workplace where we care for each other and assist one another across professional groups, and maintain an open climate between employees and managers.

To allow nursing staff to focus on patients, we work with support functions such as discharge coordinators, receptionists, relieving functions in the medication room, kitchen assistants, and patient care services.

If this sounds interesting, we look forward to meeting you to tell you more about our operations and to learn more about you.
