Job Description

As a nurse on Ward S102, you work with the most important thing there is – our children and adolescents. You will have a central role in the care work and become a key person in the team.

The tasks are varied and include among others:

• Leadership and collaboration with several professions.
• Medication management, sampling, and educational meals.
• Conversations with patients and parents.
• Collaboration with residences, authorities, and care neighbors.

Workgroup

We are a positive and ambitious group consisting of doctors, nurses, caregivers, occupational therapists, social workers, dietitians, and psychologists. Together we are responsible for ensuring that care maintains high quality and is based on the individual patient's needs.

About You

We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse. Experience from psychiatric care or health care for children and adolescents is meritorious but not a requirement. You as a nurse need to feel secure with conversation as a tool and thrive in a varied work pace.

As you work in constant dialogue with patients and colleagues, it is a requirement that you have good knowledge of the Swedish language, both spoken and written.

To thrive and fit in with us, your personal qualities are important. For this position, we are looking for a colleague who is secure in themselves, has the ability to broaden their perspective, take in others' viewpoints, and who dares to lead others towards a common goal. The applicant should also enjoy working with relationship-building as we use ourselves as the primary tool in the department.
