Your Mission

As a unit manager, you are responsible for leading, coordinating, and developing services within Child, Youth and Family Health in Northern Värmland. The mission includes midwifery clinics, child health care, as well as youth clinics and family centers in collaboration with municipalities.

You have full line responsibility for personnel, working environment, finances, and the quality of the services.

You are responsible for ensuring that the services are conducted according to assignments, goals, and applicable regulations, as well as that working methods evolve in line with changing needs and conditions.

The services are an important part of the transition to Close Care. This means a clear focus on accessibility, continuity, relationships, and early interventions. As a unit manager, you contribute to developing care that is based on the needs of the child and family and characterized by collaboration between the region, municipalities, and other actors, especially within the work of family centers.
