The clinic is a specialized service aimed at personality disorders. It is a large clinic where we work in interdisciplinary teams consisting of psychologists, nurses, social workers, rehabilitation coordinators, and doctors. There are good opportunities for professional exchange and development work.

We are tasked with developing care for this patient group and continuously work to renew and improve our methods and collaboration. We strive to create a workplace with high professionalism and an open climate, dialogue between different perspectives, and a connection to the university and research.

As one of the nurses in the Psychiatry Affectiva department, you will be part of an organization where development work, continuing education, and supervision are seen as important for a good working environment. Professional development for nurses occurs actively both centrally and at our clinic.

The work requires independence, good collaboration skills, and a professional approach, while you are an important part of the team's collective work.
