JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Kriminalvården provides certain open health and medical care, which means that all prisons and detention centers have medical clinics where inmates can seek care. In addition to nurses, the clinics also have general practitioners, physiotherapists, and psychologists. We are now looking for four licensed nurses who can work as summer substitutes throughout the entire summer period from week 25 to week 32.

As a nurse, you will have your own clinic for assessing minor ailments, but you will also determine which applicants should see a doctor or another professional. This means that you will work with both somatic and psychiatric health and medical care for inmates, assist during medical consultations, and administer medication primarily through dose dispensing and dose division. Documentation is currently done in the PMO patient data journal.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who is secure, stable, and self-aware. You find it easy to collaborate with others and have well-founded and clear values. In stressful situations, you remain calm, stable, and controlled. You have a high level of integrity and the ability to make correct assessments and priorities. You are quality-conscious and meticulous, and you have the ability to structure your approach and drive your processes forward.

We are looking for someone who:

• Is a licensed nurse.
• Has at least two years of professional experience.
• Has good knowledge of the Swedish language in both spoken and written form.

It is advantageous if you have:

• A driving license (B).
• Other language skills besides Swedish and English.
• A relevant specialization or further education for the employer, such as in psychiatry, emergency care, or outpatient care.

To thrive and succeed in your role, it is important that you share Kriminalvården's fundamental values of a humane view of humanity, respect for the individual, and the belief that people can develop. You are also aware of and understand how background, culture, and group affiliation affect yourself and others. Furthermore, you are expected to contribute to ensuring that everyone is treated equally through your approach. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.
