Job Description

As a Pediatric Nurse, you will work with our assignments concerning child health care such as parental support, telephone counseling, reception, group activities, and home visits. The Pediatric Care is also part of the family center that is geographically close to the Pediatric Care facilities. Together with educators in the open preschool's activities and social services from the municipality, we have close cooperation for children and parents for health-promoting, preventive, and supportive purposes. To thrive in the role, we believe it is important that you appreciate working independently and collaborating with colleagues. The work consists of independently organizing your reception according to the child health care program, while you and your colleagues support each other and work together to develop the operation forward. You will also work in a team with experienced doctors at the Pediatric Care and collaborate with other professionals from the health center and our healthcare neighbors in the building.

At the Pediatric Care, you will work closely with five other nurses who are experienced in their roles. We work together with collaboration and respect for each other's competence; our goal is a work climate where everyone has varied tasks and can develop in their professional role.
