Vacant job

In Region Kronoberg, we are 6,500 people working for the best of the residents of Kronoberg – every day! We are responsible for healthcare, public transport, regional development, and culture in the county. Our goal is for our employees to thrive, grow in their professional roles, and be able to influence their workdays.

At our department 13, we care for elderly patients with multiple illnesses and orthopedic issues. Most have complex problems and disabilities, where specialist knowledge in elderly care and a multidisciplinary approach are crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

Our work within the clinic does not start from a diagnosis, but we look at the whole patient. We try in various ways to help the patient preserve as many of their functions as possible.

We work in teams and have a holistic view, aiming to meet the specific needs of the elderly patient. The teams consist of doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dietitians, pharmacists, and secretaries.

All professional categories assess the patient's condition, and a summary is made at the team conference, where an individual plan is established. There is close collaboration with municipalities and primary care to ensure the patient is cared for at the right level of care.

We want to develop geriatrics and are looking for someone with a special interest in caring for our elderly. In this work, we want to utilize your ideas and thoughts to drive the work forward.

JOB DESCRIPTION

As a nurse, you have an important role where you often act as a coordinator in contact with relatives, other units, the municipality, etc. The work also includes being able to assess and perform both general and specific nursing around health issues.

You will be part of a pleasant work group with an open climate and many experienced colleagues.

Nursing students according to the ULVE model are part of the department. We welcome your interest in mentoring students.

We offer you a secure introduction tailored to your needs.

If you are a newly graduated nurse, you will be part of Region Kronoberg's clinical development program, which spans over 2 years. There are also opportunities for paid education to become a specialist nurse.

When you work in a rotation service (both day and night shifts), you receive a reduction in working hours: a night index of 1.4, which means that one hour at night counts as 1.4 worked hours. If you work during inconvenient hours (OB), you receive an extra bonus equivalent to your regular compensation multiplied by 0.6.

You will create your own schedule based on the needs of the operation and your own professional development.

Rotation service and annual working hours apply. There is an opportunity for night work.
