Östhammar Health Center

Our 1800 employees work with close care and health in Uppsala County. We offer a wide range of services within primary care. Our patients meet us at Region Uppsala's own health centers or within habilitation, and we provide advice over the phone via 1177. Education, research, and development are important to us as we adapt our services based on the needs of the residents. We already offer mobile teams, video visits, and smart e-services.

Do you also want 1100 on your list? Then you, as a general practitioner, have the opportunity to apply!

There is now a unique opportunity to be part of our initiative to hire more general practitioners at Östhammar Health Center, aiming to offer 1100 listed patients per full-time general practitioner by 2026. Be part of it from the start, and there are great opportunities to influence our new working methods, patient flows, and scheduling! We offer permanent positions at 75-100%, and the working percentage will be discussed based on the applicant's wishes. Start date by agreement.

Region Uppsala places all permanently employed staff based on the needs of the total defense. This means that for the individual employee, there are no obligations in peacetime, but it is solely a planning measure.

Before a hiring decision, a check of suspicion and criminal records will be conducted for all job applicants who may work in psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and youth, or compulsory care of substance abusers, areas that are covered by optional record extracts. This applies to everyone who will work closely with patients, even if the tasks are not currently intended to mainly involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.
