Job Description

As a nurse, your tasks will involve pre- and post-operative care in the clinic's ward. Optimization, mobilization, and general nursing care are focus areas. Patient admissions occur around the clock and in collaboration with the orthopedic on-call.

You work in a team, and it is important that you see your part in making the team function and develop. During the day, 1-2 nurses and 1-2 nursing assistants work per care team of seven patients. We have increased staffing at night, working with 2-3 nurses and three or four nursing assistants depending on occupancy. The care coordinator and social coordinator manage our flows.

You are a qualified nurse. Experience in orthopedics is an advantage, but not a requirement. Since you will communicate with patients, relatives, and colleagues, it is important that you have good Swedish language skills in both speech and writing.

You have good collaboration skills, are calm, stable, and patient-focused. You see opportunities in change and easily adapt to changing circumstances. You are service-oriented and contribute to a good working atmosphere.
