Clinic for Acute Geriatrics, Stroke, and Palliative Care (KASP), Nyköping Hospital

Welcome to a pleasant multicultural and inclusive environment with great commitment from management and staff!

About us and Your Responsibilities

The ALMA team is an acute geriatric mobile team tasked with reducing hospital admissions and readmissions, providing care for our elderly patients who often fare better receiving care in their homes. We operate from Nyköping Hospital and serve the municipalities of Nyköping and Oxelösund. We connect patients via ambulance, primary care, and home healthcare to stabilize patients who have deteriorated and are stable enough to remain at home. We also follow up with patients from the emergency department who do not require admission but need close medical monitoring to be able to return home, and we follow up with patients from departments at Nyköping Hospital to reduce hospital stays and the risk of readmissions.

At the ALMA team, nurses and doctors work closely together, but as a nurse, you will also conduct home visits independently and need to feel secure in your professional role. You will make assessments, perform checks, EKGs, take samples, manage medications, administer medications intravenously, set up IVs, etc. An important part of the job is to see the whole picture of the patient, and therefore collaboration with other healthcare providers such as home healthcare, case managers, and home care services is essential to ensure the patient feels safe and well cared for.

The acute geriatric department has 12 beds divided into 2 care teams where nurses and nursing assistants share responsibility for 6 patients. Geriatrics is a broad field, and we encounter patients with many different diagnoses as we care for multi-sick elderly patients, making a holistic view essential. Teamwork is also a crucial factor here, and we have weekly team rounds to plan care goals together with the patient's needs in focus. As a nurse, your responsibilities will include medication administration, nursing care, central lines, wound dressings, blood transfusions, and supervising students. With us, you will have excellent opportunities to develop and vary your tasks in collaboration with the entire team.

We also have several appreciated support functions such as discharge coordinators, care leaders, and meal hosts.

You will alternate between department work and ALMA.
