About the workplace

At the Resource Unit, you are welcomed into a positive and development-oriented environment.

Assignments vary from single-day work to longer assignments with the same client. Some days you will have the opportunity to work alongside colleagues from the Resource Unit. We have a fixed rolling schedule, where you partially have the opportunity to influence how you want to work.

We primarily work at the hospital in Västerås within somatic and psychiatric care, but also have assignments at the hospitals in Fagersta, Sala, and Köping. We welcome applicants from these areas as well.

With us, you will be offered a training package consisting of both e-learning and practical training such as delegations in sampling, tube feeding, and more. Together, we will develop the introduction you need to feel secure in your role.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone who has a recognized assistant nurse education and has obtained proof of protected professional title. You also need to have at least one year of experience in the profession. Experience working in emergency care and psychiatric care is an advantage. We also see it as a benefit if you have experience or knowledge in our delegation areas and have worked in the Cosmic journal system. You need to have good computer skills and good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written, as this is a prerequisite for ensuring patient-safe care. Since the work can be physically demanding at times, we expect you to be in good physical condition.

We are looking for someone who is secure and stable, both in your professional role and as a person. To thrive with us, it is important that you are flexible and enjoy working with varied tasks and in different operations. The job requires the ability to remain calm and focused even in stressful situations. You are self-sufficient, reliable, and express a positive attitude towards work and the organization. Since we often work in teams, we see that you have a good ability to collaborate and communicate with others in a responsive manner.
