The remand center also has a branch in Nacka. You can easily reach Huddinge Remand Center by train and a short walk from Flemingsberg station.

JOB DESCRIPTION

In addition to nurses, there are general practitioners and psychiatrists at the clinics. As a nurse, you will have your own clinic for assessing minor ailments, but you will also determine which applicants should see a doctor. This means that you will work with both somatic and psychiatric health care for the detainees, assist during medical consultations, and administer medications primarily through dose dispensing.

At the secure remand center in Huddinge, you will work closely with 3 other nurses, one of whom holds a coordinating position.

Working hours are weekdays during the day, with weekend work every fourth weekend.
