Psychiatry South Stockholm is hiring nurses!

Psychiatry South Stockholm strives to become a leading example in Swedish psychiatry.

We do this by working person-centered, offering the right competence for the patient's needs, emphasizing the application of evidence-based guidelines and care programs.

We are over 1000 dedicated employees who provide patients with good, safe, and equal care.

Now we are entering a new era! In the autumn of 2025, Stockholm County's healthcare area (SLSO) started Psychosis Care Stockholm - a newly formed organization that gathers all psychosis outpatient and inpatient care units within SLSO into a common operation.

About the Psychiatric Emergency Reception Rosenlund

The reception offers assessment and advice for all citizens who turn to Psychiatry South Stockholm. The unit consists of about 30 employees; doctors, nurses, caregivers, nursing assistants, and medical secretaries.

We conduct acute psychiatric assessments and provide care interventions every day of the year from 8 AM to 10 PM.
