The Role of Nurse

With our summer positions, we want to offer you an opportunity to learn and develop together with us. You are facing an exciting, developing, and varied job during the summer of 2025. In the role of a nurse, tasks include leading all steps of the nursing process together with others in the department's team, in collaboration with the patient and relatives. Also, coordinating care plans in collaboration with doctors and others in the team.

- We are all beginners at some point, and here they really care about you when you come as new, says Jessica, nursing assistant at Högland Hospital in Eksjö.

In terms of scope, we offer you the opportunity to work as an hourly employee or as a full-time employee depending on your preference. If you want to stay with us after the summer, there are good chances for that.

During your time with us, you will be assigned a mentor who is there to support you in creating the best conditions for you to take on your new role with us. Before you start working in the operation, you will receive a thorough introduction based on your needs and experiences. In addition, we promise a solid foundation as we hold training for summer substitutes during week 24, where we cover topics such as responding to threatening situations, CPR, and an introduction to work and routines on the care ward over three days. Besides creating a solid foundation for your employment, this provides an opportunity to build community with other summer substitutes.
