JOB DESCRIPTION

We welcome you as a driven and committed nursing assistant or pediatric nurse who wants to help develop emergency care for children together with us.

You will work with common tasks in a pediatric emergency department, such as nursing, sampling, care, and treatment of acutely ill children. The introduction also includes training in patient-related analyses, basic pediatrics, emergency exercises, medical technology, and our triage tool RETTS.

We have a five-week introduction period, but your introduction is individual and will of course be adapted according to your previous experiences. As a new employee, you will always have the support of an experienced colleague. You will also have at least one mentor, who has extensive experience working in pediatric and emergency care, during your introduction period and also thereafter depending on your wishes and needs.

In your role as a nursing assistant/pediatric nurse in the pediatric emergency department, your tasks will consist of nursing and treatment of the acutely ill child. With us, you will encounter a varied and stimulating job in a good working environment that requires flexibility and collaboration.

We offer a TimeCare schedule, which means that you will work 37 hours a week and be employed in a combined day and night shift, where you work two weekends in five weeks. We have scheduled short training sessions/lectures several days a week as well as emergency exercises. Additionally, we have four training days per year for employees.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who is a trained nursing assistant and meets the Socialstyrelsen's requirements for a protected professional title, regardless of whether you have studied according to previous or current program structure. If you have studied according to the previous program structure, we welcome you with a focus on emergency care/health care or you who are trained as a pediatric nurse. In addition, you have good knowledge of the Swedish language. We would like you to have experience working as a nursing assistant and/or pediatric nurse, preferably within pediatric care. Experience working in a pediatric emergency department is an advantage.

Your positive attitude contributes to a good working climate, and as a person, you are confident in your professional role and have an easy time adapting to the changing circumstances that working in an emergency department entails. You feel secure in your priorities and always have the patient in focus, even when the pace is sometimes high. We highly value that you are engaged and have an interest in pediatric care.

Since we work closely in teams, good collaboration skills, a high sense of service, and a genuine interest in children and their families are important. We value that you are engaged and flexible, as well as very meticulous and stress-resistant in your work. We are keen to find the right person for our team and place great importance on personal suitability. Therefore, we see that you always strive for good collaboration and meet colleagues and families based on Region Skåne's values: welcoming, driving, caring, and respect.

Extracts from suspicion and criminal records will be made before any employment.
