Field of Activity: Geriatrics, Rehabilitation and Pain Center

We are Akademiska sjukhuset – one of Sweden's leading university hospitals. As a regional hospital and provider of highly specialized care, we offer care to two million people in Central Sweden. Something is always happening here – a new life is born, a grandmother is operated on, a colleague is hailed as a hero. With us, you will experience both tough challenges and fantastic events, in a strong community with colleagues. See parts of our reality in our photo exhibition; akademiskafotoutstallning.se (http://akademiskafotoutstallning.se). Welcome with your application!

Akademiska sjukhuset offers the opportunity for study salary for nurses accepted into the specialist nursing program in elderly care. After completing and passing the specialist training, you will be offered a position as a specialist nurse, and we look forward to you being an important resource in the development of our operations!

Conditions

Your study salary corresponds to 100% of the base salary (maximum 32,000 SEK/month) and is primarily aimed at nurses who are permanently employed or who, in connection with recruitment, will have a permanent position at Akademiska sjukhuset, Region Uppsala, and start their education in the autumn semester of 2026 at Uppsala University. A study salary may also be offered for studies conducted at other educational institutions. The study salary is vacation pay qualifying and is not paid during holidays and any study breaks. The hospital prioritizes applicants who have not previously received a study salary during specialist training within Region Uppsala. Once you have progressed in your studies, but well in advance of your graduation, we will have a joint dialogue about where you will have your future workplace. Your placement will, as far as possible, be in accordance with your wishes but may also be determined based on the needs of the operation.
