We work in teams together with nursing assistants, doctors, and pharmacists.

In the department, we investigate, care for, and treat patients with lung and kidney diseases.

The employment covers all hours of the day, and your working hours include day/evening shifts on a rolling 10-week schedule, with duty on 2 weekends out of 5. During the holiday period, a separate holiday schedule is created for the department, which may involve different working hours during this period.

What you get:

  • Introduction package with accompanying shadowing.
  • A varied and enjoyable job with good support from colleagues.
  • Professional development, lectures, and training based on your and the department's needs.
  • In our unit, you will gain specialized knowledge in lung, kidney, and internal medicine.
