About us
Our surgical emergency department (KAVA) is a broad general surgical emergency care unit. We receive most acute patients with a surgical diagnosis. We work with rapid investigations and examinations to meet our patients' care needs and treatments. Admissions occur around the clock, and we have close collaboration with the emergency department and our other surgical ward. Our mission also includes caring for elective patients with colorectal diagnoses, focusing primarily on postoperative care. Our mix consists of both younger and older patients, as well as short and longer stays around the acute patients to the somewhat longer stays for the elective colorectal patients.

We are looking for someone with a Swedish nursing license and at least four months of experience in the profession with an interest in surgical emergency care. Experience in surgical care is an advantage. To fit into our team, you should be easy to collaborate with, have a flexible working style, and the ability to build good relationships. Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability.
If you are in your final semester of the nursing program or have less than four months of professional experience, you are referred to apply for our introduction programs. Read more about SÄS's introduction offer for newly graduated nurses here (#).
