Welcome to a workplace where community, development, and care are in focus!

We are now looking for a specialist in general medicine.

Your workplace

One of our specialists is moving on to another job, giving us the opportunity to offer a position with us. We are a great team of 34 employees working together to provide the best for our patients. We are proud of our cohesion, the common focus we have, and the open-hearted atmosphere we have created at our workplace.

The health center has about 11,000 registered patients. Currently, we have seven specialists and three resident doctors with us. Several of our district nurses have further education in areas such as asthma-COPD and diabetes.

At the health center, there is a counseling reception with a social worker, psychologist, and psychiatric nurse. A welfare coordinator from Karlstad municipality is also on site every week. We hold regular medical meetings for continuing education, dialogue, and collegial support. We work on the development of the operations and assignments together. We often say that we are large enough not to be vulnerable but small enough to easily make improvements at the unit if we want to. We have developed a close collaboration with Karlstad municipality and the civil society around the health center. We know that this is good for us and our patients.

Your tasks

You will work variably with the investigation, treatment, and assessment of patients. One of our specialists is a Silvia doctor and primarily works with nursing homes and home care in our district, but there is an opportunity to combine these assignments if you wish. We also offer digital consultations for our patients, which can be managed from home for those who prefer.

Your knowledge and competencies

We are looking for someone who is a specialist in general medicine and authorized to work within Swedish healthcare. You express yourself well in Swedish, both spoken and written, and have an easy time building good relationships with both patients and colleagues. We want you to enjoy working together with other professionals and mentoring students, resident doctors, and interns.
