About the Department

The Intensive Care Unit at Alingsås Hospital is part of the An/Op/Iva area and one of two intensive care units within the Hospitals in the West.

We are a smaller unit with six beds for intensive and intermediate care. Our operations are high-tech and patient-centered, with short decision-making paths and well-functioning routines.

The facilities are modern and tailored for the operations, with single rooms for patients. About 50 intensive care nurses and nursing assistants work closely with anesthesiologists and other specialist doctors. The work environment is characterized by high competence, structure, and a good social community.

Job Responsibilities

You will care for patients with failing vital functions and be responsible for monitoring and treatment of the unit's intermediate care patients.

The work is done in teams with different professions, where collaboration and communication are central. You also have the opportunity to engage in responsibility groups that develop routines and working methods based on current research.

We offer regular training, scenario exercises, and A-CPR. With us, there are good opportunities to develop in your professional role and contribute to the development of the operations.

Qualifications

We are looking for a licensed nurse with several years of professional experience; experience working in inpatient care is an advantage. You are interested in further challenges and are now ready for the development of your professional role.

You are confident in your profession and can work structured and methodically even under stressful conditions. You adapt care to the patient and can make well-founded decisions. A professional and respectful approach towards patients, relatives, and colleagues is a given for you. You find it easy to collaborate in teams and communicate clearly, while also being self-sufficient when needed.

We would like you to have an interest in development and improvement work, as our operations constantly strive to be at the forefront. You need to be flexible with the ability to adapt to a varying pace of work, as these are important qualities.

Other

We offer an individually tailored introduction with mentorship support. Scheduling is done individually in a 12-week plan, with shifts during all hours of the day.

Selection and interviews are ongoing, so please submit your application today!
