About the job

Your tasks at BVC are varied, where you follow children with guardians from newborn until school health care takes over. You play a central role in meeting the families' needs, making medical and nursing assessments and priorities. You work health-promoting, advisory, and treatment both via phone, home visits, digital care meetings, and at the clinic.

You will work with health checks, vaccinations, and parent groups. The patient group consists of children aged 0-6 years with their families. Collaboration occurs in interdisciplinary teams at the health center, and cooperation also takes place with external care providers such as preschools, schools, family centers, and specialist healthcare. Educating future colleagues is an important and rewarding part of our mission, so supervising students is also part of your role at the health center.

About you

You are a licensed nurse with specialist training as a pediatric nurse or district nurse. It is an advantage if you have experience working with children and youth and/or have supervisor training of 7.5 credits, but we also welcome recent graduates.

We are looking for someone who takes initiative in their work and is confident in making their own decisions. You are meticulous, have good problem-solving skills, and can effectively prioritize your tasks.

In your work, you meet many patients, so it is important that you are accommodating, attentive, and willing to help others. We also believe you thrive in teamwork, and for you, it is natural to collaborate with colleagues and other contacts. You can express yourself well in both speech and writing, and you are an engaged and good listener in both digital meetings and visits to the clinic. We would also like you to have an interest in digitalization and business development.

A professional approach and a good attitude towards customers, patients, and colleagues are a given for you. We also see that you live up to Närhälsan's core values; Reliable, Caring, and Innovative.

Other

The position primarily involves work at BVC but also at the health center. Travel in the job is required, and a B driver's license is necessary.

Interviews at the health center are planned for March 2 and March 3. Welcome with your application!

About the recruitment process

Selection takes place in two stages. The first selection is made by recruiters in the HR department who invite candidates for a phone interview. Then the recruiting manager makes a second selection of applicants and invites them for an interview at the health center.

We use competency-based interviews, which means that answers to questions should be based on actual situations. It is important that you describe as concrete situations as possible and try to avoid generalizing answers – this is so we can understand the situation, why you acted as you did, and what the outcome was.
