Södersjukhuset is hiring a Nurse for the Geriatric Clinical Decision Unit (G-CDU)

Södersjukhuset has opened a geriatric clinical decision unit (G-CDU) in the autumn of 2025.

With G-CDU, the hospital aims to establish a new form of care, a decision/investigation unit, for Södersjukhuset's elderly frail patients.

The new G-CDU unit is part of the acute flow and is organizationally placed within Internal Medicine. The unit receives patients from all somatic specialties, both from the SÖS emergency department and directly from geriatrics, ASIH, or nursing homes by agreement.

G-CDU is open from Sunday evening (21:00) to Friday afternoon (16:00). We offer quick assessment, investigation, and treatment, as well as preparing patients for the next step. Within 12-24 hours, the patient should either be able to be discharged home, transferred to another specialty within SöS, or to another healthcare provider. Close collaboration with care neighbors within the region is a significant part of achieving the most efficient and rapid care chain possible.
