Region Jämtland Härjedalen is a region to long for and grow in. We will work for development and growth in Jämtland Härjedalen and offer all residents and visitors high-quality healthcare.

Primary care in Region Jämtland Härjedalen is organizationally part of Division Close Care together with Ambulance, Dental Care, Psychiatry, and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.

Primary care is organized into 4 local care areas, and since January 2022, primary care and ambulance services have been integrated under good and close care. Each local care area is an economic unit led by a manager. Primary care is also responsible for the region's medical advice, youth reception, and the local care department Näva, all of which are grant-funded.

Backe Health Center is a small rural unit with a total of about 1,097 registered residents, as well as about 300 additional patients registered from adjacent regions.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

You work with health-promoting activities, group activities, and collaborate with other professionals at the health center. You will work based on evidence-based methods individually, in group activities, and via the internet.

We actively work to develop our treatment efforts for good living habits and to prevent long-term sick leave, and part of this work is that within Region Jämtland Härjedalen, we have long invested in a clear distribution of the number of registered patients per doctor and have worked hard for a permanent doctor contact, which today means that we are very close to the National Board of Health and Welfare's overarching goal of 1,100 registered patients per doctor.
