Description

We are seeking licensed nurses for home healthcare in ordinary housing within Värnamo municipality.

Responsibilities

The work involves being responsible for health and medical care interventions in municipal healthcare. You will be responsible for both planned and acute health and medical care interventions for both younger and older patients.

As a nurse, you will independently make medical assessments, treatments, and actions. Since patients' care needs vary, the tasks range from common interventions, such as medication management, sampling, and wound care, to more advanced interventions like dialysis, infusions, and management of tracheostomy, CVK/venous ports, and drainage. Specialist competence is available in areas such as palliative advanced care, wound care nursing, and psychiatric coordination. We also have access to a methodology where some training is conducted. There, you can also renew your knowledge.

Together with colleagues, you will work in a team to ensure the best quality for those we serve. You need to be able to work independently and make your own decisions. Being attentive and empathetic is natural for you, as is having a holistic view in your work with people. Your work will mostly be during daytime, but some evening and weekend shifts are included.

According to our values, you need to be able to:

• Put the needs and interests of those we serve at the center.
• Take an active responsibility for developing the organization and yourself.
• Collaborate across boundaries and utilize each other's competencies.
• Promote job satisfaction, be able to place your work in a larger context, enjoy your work, and feel professional pride.
