Are you a dietitian looking for an assignment where you can work variably, broadly, and freely? Do you also want to influence your work? Then this is the right workplace for you.

We are looking for a dietitian substitute for Primary Care in Eastern Östergötland (NSÖ) to work within our assignments at the medical clinic and the geriatric clinic at Vrinnevisjukhuset (ViN) in Norrköping.

Our Offer

For the future. Region Östergötland has high ambitions and a responsible mission. It is about health and care, about the development of our region, and about those who live and reside here. We want to continue to be at the forefront with care, research, and education. It is about daring to think anew – and having the best employees. Therefore, we offer unique opportunities for further learning and invest in modern environments with effective systems and tools. Many of us meet patients and relatives, while others create the conditions for life-saving interventions. With us, fantastic people work towards the same goal – to make a real difference, and for the future.

At the medical clinic, we investigate and treat lung diseases, diabetes, endocrine diseases, kidney diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, strokes, and blood diseases. We also provide advanced home care around the clock for patients with tumor diseases and other chronic conditions requiring extensive medical measures.

The geriatric clinic in Norrköping has specialist competence in aging diseases. We have a clinic focusing on cognitive diseases and Parkinson's disease (for individuals over 70 years), a geriatric emergency care department (GAVA), and a mobile geriatric team, Alma mobile.

Involving patients, respecting individual integrity, and ensuring high patient safety are important ingredients in our operations. Within NSÖ, we have three inpatient wards, several specialist clinics, a dialysis unit, and a unit for advanced home care.

We believe that education and research lead to better care for patients and create a stimulating work environment for our employees. We systematically work to create an academic environment, and in 2022, the medical clinic, VIN was designated as an Academic unit. Vrinnevisjukhuset is a medium-sized hospital where it is easy to collaborate across clinical boundaries.

Job Description

As a dietitian within NSÖ, you will work with all outpatient clinics at the clinic, as well as with the clinic's three inpatient wards where hospitalized patients are cared for. Our dietitians have divided areas among themselves to narrow down their focus areas, but often help each other through discussion and exchange of experiences. Together, you will discuss questions within the group, support, and assist each other to provide the best possible support to patients. There is a network of dietitian colleagues at the hospital and in the region.

The introduction is tailored to your needs, and we actively work with development projects and your own professional development.
