Nurses for the Stroke Unit in Skellefteå

Region Västerbotten works to ensure that good health and sustainable development strengthen each other. We take responsibility for equitable welfare and ensure that research and innovation yield results.

Within the health and medical care administration, primary care, dental care, and hospital care are gathered in a common administration and organized into county and local healthcare areas. In the local healthcare area of Skellefteå, the Emergency Department, Medical and Geriatric Clinic, Rehabilitation Center, Psychiatric Clinic, 1177, and primary care in Skellefteå and Norsjö are included. Together, these aim to provide good and close care.

The Medical and Geriatric Clinic in Skellefteå is one of the hospital's largest clinics with approximately 300 employees. The clinic's beds are distributed according to medical and geriatric specialties. The majority of admissions are acute and occur via the emergency department. The outpatient care consists of medicine, geriatrics, and dialysis clinics. Within the medicine clinic, there are also day care services and a physiological laboratory. The clinic also has a research unit, which is unique for a regional hospital.

We are currently seeking nurses for our Stroke Unit, ward 3, where our focus is on Stroke and Gastroenterology. We value a work environment where we thrive together and feel joy in our work. Issues related to work environment, professional development, and the development of care are constantly relevant and prioritized. We work according to a work time model – a modified 3-3 model – which creates good conditions for recovery and balance between work and leisure.

Our goal is for all employees to feel involved and know that their contribution is important – every individual plays a crucial role in our collective work.
