JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

You will work alongside midwife and nursing colleagues who are always there to support you.

In the emergency reception, work is done in pairs, where the midwife and nursing assistant collaborate closely while also cooperating with the rest of the team. We meet both healthy pregnant patients and patients with high-risk pregnancies, making the work varied and challenging. In the emergency reception, we work in a team consisting of two midwives, two nursing assistants, and two doctors.

Working with us is responsible and varied, and you will work with a broad competence. In the clinic, we strive for continuous development, and you have an important role in inspiring and initiating improvement work. We all work together towards the operational goals and for good care of our patients.
