District Nurse/Nurse in Home Care

Do you want to work as a District Nurse/Nurse in home care? We are looking for someone with experience as a nurse, preferably within municipal care and nursing. If you have a specialist education as a district nurse, geriatric nurse, or other relevant specialization, it is an advantage.

Kumla Municipality is a prosperous municipality with a balanced economy where you as an employee have good opportunities to develop both yourself and the organization.

The Health and Medical Care Unit (HMSV) is a branch within the social services with the purpose of promoting primary care as the hub of health and medical care for the municipality's citizens. HMSV works to ensure that the municipal care level functions closely with citizens and contributes to health and security, as well as promoting and developing person-centered working methods. As we face significant challenges in future care, preventive care and promoting independence for our patients is an important mission and goal.

Organizationally, we are divided into two units where HSE1 (Health and Medical Care Unit) includes home care, LSS, home rehabilitation, and assistive technology. HSE2 includes care and nursing homes.

There is a wide range of expertise within the staff group, which also has a strong desire to develop and improve health and medical care for the citizens of Kumla. Behind you stands an engaged and present unit manager with a nursing background and extensive experience in municipal care and nursing.

As a unit manager, I place great importance on mutual trust and being unpretentious in our relationships.

HSE1 consists of 9 occupational therapists, 2 assistive technology technicians, 17 nurses, and one unit manager. We are based at the Home Care House, the Old Shoe Factory in Kumla, where there are also 4 home care groups, unit managers, and administrative staff.
