Wisby Söder Health Center

About 45 employees work here in interdisciplinary general medicine teams to provide our approximately 14,000 listed patients with good, close, and accessible care.

Key actors for the patient collaborate through teamwork, where continuity is our cornerstone.

The health center is characterized by engaged and solution-oriented employees who, with professionalism and knowledge, take responsibility for both the development of the organization and the daily work with the patient in focus. The atmosphere at the health center is described as structured, welcoming, learning, and pleasant by both colleagues and students.

We drive improvement initiatives initiated by employees to create more efficient care processes, better continuity, more person-centered and accessible care, along with a sustainable work environment. The patient-centered work is based on medical assessments and priorities, where we work with evidence-based treatments. We actively work to develop our treatment efforts for increased psychosocial health, good living habits, and to prevent long-term sick leave while promoting a quick return to work.

Your Responsibilities

With us, you will work both independently and in a team around the patient. The work is varied, broad, and educational, where we utilize your knowledge, experiences, and areas of interest based on the patients' needs.

You will work within a broad generalist area and use your knowledge to meet and care for patients of all ages, with a wide variety of care needs, disease profiles, and functional abilities. You will have close collaboration with your nursing colleagues and other professionals at the clinic. You will handle both planned and acute visits, coordination, and should be able to adapt when re-prioritizations need to occur. Within the group, there are specialist competencies in lifestyle habits, diabetes, heart failure, asthma/COPD, osteoporosis, and incontinence, where we strive to utilize competencies as effectively as possible in patient-centered work.

Your duties will largely consist of telephone counseling and clinic work. You will make assessments, triage, and perform both investigative, treatment, nursing, and medical tasks. You will be responsible for assessing care needs, triaging, and providing advice via telephone through TeleQ, as well as managing digital care cases via the 1177 e-service.

The clinic work includes tasks such as vaccinations, medication administrations, examinations, and wound dressings. You will coordinate, plan, and perform nursing and medical measures in accordance with the patient's care plan. In some cases, you will act as a primary care contact for patients in need of coordination, where you will be an important part of the team around the patient based on individual needs and care plans.

The working hours are scheduled for daytime on weekdays without weekends.
